Appendix Table 2.

References to research reviewed in this chapter. The table is organized by anatomical regions, and it indicates neuroimaging findings based upon brain functional and structural methods. The names of the anatomical regions are listed as given by the researchers in the citations. All impairments are compared to healthy controls. Abbreviations: ADC, apparent diffusion coefficient; FA, fractional anisotropy; MD, mean diffusivity.
