(a) Using rs-fcMRI mapping, a seven–network parcellation of the human cerebral cortex is presented, derived from 1,000 subjects from Yeo and colleagues (2011) (used with permission from the American Physiological Society). (b) Using both rs-fcMRI and DTI, van den Heuvel and Sporns (2011) derived a rich club network. When rich-club networks are inlaid within other networks, the complexity of network integration can be visualized. An injury to rich-club networks (blue circles and red connections) is much more disruptive to network integrity than damage to non-rich-club nodes and connections (gray circles, and orange and yellow connections) because of the dense interconnectedness of rich-club networks. In this analogy, the amount of damage is the same but the effects would be widely different because of the location and how networks would be affected.
