a

Brain regions with significant activation set a priori at P <.05 random-effects analysis, random field cluster–corrected for multiple comparisons, and z threshold set at z > 2.3. Anatomical regions identified with FSLeyes and FSL function atlasquery based on peak voxel location and >5% probability of cluster of activity in anatomical region based on the Harvard-Oxford Cortical Structural Atlas17,2325 (cluster 1 [both movements] and 2) and Juelich Histological Atlas2628 (cluster 3).
