Connectivity strength listed in percentages of subjects with structural connections between the OC template and the listed area. A threshold of 50% was applied; meaning only connections present in more than half of subjects are included. All connections are from the template to ipsilateral areas. * The sOCN and mOCN include the whole piriform cortex. ** As the fOCN templates contain parts of the amygdala and putamen, the connectivity strength is a representation of connectivity to the remaining parts of these regions.

AAL: Automated anatomical labelling atlas. fOCN: Olfactory cortical template based on functional meta-analysis. fOCN (grey): Functional olfactory cortex network template containing only defined grey matter regions. sOCN: Olfactory cortex network template based on structural data from the AAL template. mOCN: Olfactory cortical network template based on merged structural and functional data.
