  • Note that analysis was carried out in the space of the study-specific template. Results were mapped from the custom template into MNI space in order to allow for co-ordinates to be reported. There were no significant clusters in the PBI > VPT-N, Controls > VPT-N, and VPT-N > Controls contrasts.
