FIGURE 3.

Comparison of atlas based VPL_p nucleus and CBT using postcentral gyrus connections. (A) Cross-sectional image derived from histological sections, in standard space (Big Brain Atlas, Amunts et al., 2013) with VPL_p overlaid (red outlines) and the CBT from the postcentral gyrus (green color scale); (B) 3D visualization of the CBT and atlas targets: connectivity-based targets were visualized in green color with different opacities reflecting to the summed probability across the study population (50–95th percentile range) while the VPL_p was depicted in red 3D mesh; (C) Euclidian distance of the center-of-gravity of the CBT to the atlas based target: dependency on the applied threshold values; (D) volumetric overlap with atlas based targets: dependency on the applied threshold.
