Converse analyses of ‘tumor connectivity’ shows that the small brain tumor was synchronized with intra-hemispheric ROI and the large brain tumor synchronized with inter-hemispheric.
(a) Label fields for a small tumor-bearing (tumor volume = 2.67 mm3) murine brain showing L/R neocortex (green), L/R hippocampus (purple), L/R thalamus (cyan), L/R striatum (white), L/R hypothalamus (orange), L/R olfactory bulb (yellow), brainstem (pink), and tumor (red) (b) Tumor resting-state connectivity map overlaid on anatomical images. (c) Label fields for large tumor-bearing (tumor volume = 96.93 mm3) murine brain with an identical color map to that shown in (a). (d) Tumor resting-state connectivity map overlaid on anatomical images. The tumor label field is red in (a) and (c). Tumor connectivity maps in (b), (d) were thresholded at p < 0.05 with the Bonferonni correction. Head orientation (L = left, R = right, D = dorsal, V = ventral) is shown in the top right corner of panels (a) and (c).
