Fig. 2. Six PFC networks that are the focus of this review.

Fig. 2

a Fronto-parietal network (FPN), with key nodes in dorsolateral PFC (dlPFC) and posterior parietal cortex (PPC). b Salience network (SN), with key nodes in anterior insula (AI) and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). c Cingulo-opercular network (CON, black) with key nodes in anterior insula/frontal operculum (aI/fO), dorsal ACC and medial superior frontal cortex (dACC/msFC), anterior PFC (aPFC) and thalamus, as distinguished from the FPN (yellow). d Ventral attention network (VAN), with key nodes in insula (Ins), inferior frontal junction (IFJ), supramarginal gyrus (SMG), and superior temporal gyrus (STG). e Dorsal attention network (DAN), with key nodes in frontal eye fields (FEF), inferior frontal junction (IFJ), intra-parietal sulcus and superior parietal lobule (IPS/SPL), angular gyrus (AG), visual area 3 A (V3A), and middle temporal visual area (MT). f Default mode network (DMN), with key nodes in ventromedial PFC (vmPFC) and posterior cingulate cortex (PCC).
