Fig. 1.

Cortical thickness difference between the PTSD patients and the normal controls.

Region abbreviations from FreeSurfer model: SFG, superior frontal gyrus; HiG, hippocampal gyrus; IPL, inferior parietal lobes; ACC, anterior cingulate cortex; PCC, posterior cingulate cortex; SFG, superior frontal gyrus; RMFG, rostral middle frontal gyrus; LOG, lateral occipital gyrus. The T value color was overlaid on the reconstruction image, and the color bar was shown at the bottom. T values in voxelwise statistical maps were calculated by a general linear model of cortical thickness at each voxel covarying for age and gender. Indicated regions in yellow illustrate where the cortices of PTSD patients are thicker than that of the normal controls at corrected p < 0.05 (FDR corrected), while the indicated region in blue illustrates where the cortices of PTSD patients are thinner than that of the normal controls at corrected p < 0.05 (FDR corrected).
