Neonatal structural MRI and DTI atlases.
Rows (A-C) respectively show the axial slices of the T2-weighted MRI, the DTI color map and fractional anisotropy (FA) atlases. The anatomical coordinates of individual axial slices are listed on the bottom of the figure.

Statistical Maps of ethnic group difference in brain morphological shape (A) and fractional anisotropy (B).
The anatomical coordinates of each axial slice are given at the bottom of each panel. Abbreviations: LG – lingual gyrus; PCR – posterior corona radiata; GP – globus pallidus; ALIC – anterior limb of internal capsule; CC – corpus callosum.
Figure 3.
Boxplots of mean deformation within each anatomical region extracted from voxel-based analysis on the brain morphological shape (see Figure 2A).
The significant pairwise group differences are indicated using black asterisk.

Figure 4.
Boxplots of mean fractional anisotropy (FA) within the anatomical regions extracted from voxel-based analysis on FA (see Figure 2B).
The significant pairwise group difference is indicated using black asterisk.
