a Structure model index (SMI) and b degree of anisotropy (DA) are represented in (i) a heatmap corresponding to their cranial–caudal and ventral–dorsal location, (ii) a scatter plot of the mean values of the ventral and dorsal VOI, (iii) a box-and-whisker plot with the individual values for ventral (circle) and dorsal (square) VOI connected by a line (-), and (iv) a box-and-whisker plot of the sample matched ventral–dorsal difference for SMI and ventral–dorsal ratio for DA.
