Table 3 Significant differences between regions. Differences (z) are provided for each significant comparison (P < 0.008), with the corresponding P value provided in italics, and non-significant comparisons indicated by a dash (—). Diagonal elements with asterisks represent borders between the results of different tests, for example in the top row the bottom triangle represents results between regions for T2*short, while the upper triangle represents results between regions for T2*long.  Th, thalamus; Pu, putamen; Pa, pallidum; Ca, caudate; Cc, corpus callosum; Cb, cerebellar WM, Cs, centrum semiovale; Po, pons.
