Our analysis pipeline
parcellated the human auditory cortex into three clusters, the central and two
other flanking parts. Each cluster exhibited a distinct functional connectivity
pattern indicating its contribution to different functional networks.
Fig. 2: Parcellation
results of the primary auditory cortex for (a) left and (b) right hemisphere. Cluster
1 (black) showed the strongest SC to STG. Cluster 2 (green) was located in
gyrus part of HG. Cluster 3 (red) showed strong SC to insula.
Fig. 3: T-values for regions with significantly
different mean FC visualized in the atlas space. Positive
t-values are presented as red color which implies the mean FC values in a pair
of regions satisfy cluster1 > cluster3. Negative t-values are presented as
blue color which implies the mean FC values in a pair of regions satisfy cluster1
< cluster3. The seed is located in (a) the left hemisphere and
(b) the right hemisphere, respectively.
