Table 2. Peak coordinates (MNI), cluster extent, and anatomical regions of the contrast “sighted > late-blind” (two sample t-test).

Anatomical locations of the peak Side Coordinates Number of voxels Significance level
Optic radiation (occipital lobe); inferior longitudinal / fronto-occipital fasciculus right 28 -71 2 9039 p < 0.004
Optic radiation (occipital lobe); inferior longitudinal / fronto-occipital fasciculus left -28 -75 2 4015 p < 0.004
Optic radiation (temporal lobe); Sagittal stratum, inferior longitudinal / fronto-occipital fasciculus left -39 -39 -11 97 p < 0.044
Thalamus (pulvinar) right 24 -32 5 90 p < 0.044
Corticospinal tracts (midbrain) right 16 -13 -8 70 p < 0.048

Results were exposed at a threshold of p < 0.05, family-wise error (FWE) corrected (for further descriptions of anatomical locations see S1 Table).
