  1. Each area consists of adjacent voxels showing a significant group difference; some brain structures have more than one area of change. The magnitude of the peak (t statistic) in each area and its Tailarach coordinates (a standardized common brain space) are listed, together with the size (in normalized space) and the mean and SD of the cortical thickness for the control and baseline ACLF groups
