  1. Voxels, number of voxels in each significant cluster; MAX Z-statistic, value of the maximum z-statistic within the cluster; MAX X/Y/Z (mm), location of the maximum intensity voxel, given as spatial coordinate values in standard space (mm). For all clusters, the corresponding p values are FWE-corrected and < 0.05. For ease of reading, a cluster size of at least 100 voxels has been chosen for reporting the significant clusters resulting from the statistical comparisons.
  2. AMY, amygdala; Caud, caudate; CER, cerebellum; CGp, posterior cingulate gyrus; ET, patients with essential tremor; FP, frontal pole; FWE, family-wise error; HC, healthy controls; HIPP, hippocampus; l, left; LOC, lateral occipital cortex; MFG, middle frontal gyrus; PAC, paracingulate gyrus; POG, postcentral gyrus; PRG, precentral gyrus; r, right; ROI, region of interest; SMA, supplementary motor areas; THL, thalamus.
