How Analyze was Used
“Regions of interest (ROIs) were manually drawn using Analyze 7.0 … in MNI125 space using Colin27 [Holmes et al. 1998] as a high-resolution, high-signal-to-noise template and included the pons, ventral midbrain, dorsal midbrain, thalamus and corpus callosum (genu and splenium) (figure 1).”
