Figure 7. Statistical parameter maps (SPMs) comparing mean diffusivity (MD) between healthy controls and IBS patients in the thalamus.

Figure 7

A) Axial and B) coronal slices through the thalamus including the partitions proposed by Behrens et al. [12; 13] (top row) and SPMs (bottom row), suggesting a higher MD in thalamic areas connected to sensory, prefrontal, and posterior parietal regions in IBS patients compared to healthy controls.
