Note:—Given are the values for the regression coefficients describing the best-fit function of the FA and MD values for each region of interest.

bCC indicates body of the corpus callosum; gCC, genu of the CC; r², square of the correlation coefficient, describing the goodness of fit; RMSE, root mean square error; sCC, splenium of the CC.
