Table 3.

White matter regions showing a significant correlation with neuropsychological test performance across subjects in both patient groups. A positive bootstrap ratio (BSR) denotes a positive correlation between white matter volume and cognitive test performance. BSRs are the ratio of a voxels weight divided by the bootstrap-derived standard error, and are equivalent to a z-score. Coordinates and BSRs are listed for the peak voxel of each cluster. Location labels are based on the major white matter tracts or the nearest gray matter region.
