Groups are separated based on scan success, with success defined as at least one sequence with high-quality data. Two-sample t-tests were used to test for group differences.
a
Significantly different (p < 0.05) from the unsuccessful group.
b
Significanly different (p < 0.05) from the partially successful group.
*
Indicates differences that survived multiple comparison correction.
The bold values indicate significant differences on the ANOVA.
