The Difference of Neural Networks between Bimanual Antiphase and In-Phase Upper Limb Movements: A Preliminary Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

Table 2

Brain areas more activated in performing bimanual movements (antiphase or in-phase) than in performing unimanual movements in the normal subject group separately. Results were thresholded at and noncorrected.
