  1. The six Talairach coordinates (in mm) defining each volume of interest (VOI) and the approximate number of voxels per VOI. med: medial; lat: lateral; post: posterior; ant: anterior; inf: inferior; sup: superior. x-coordinates are bilateral, '+' is right and contralateral to stimulus; '-' is left and ipsilateral to stimulus, making 36 VOI. * Coordinates are min/max of a 13-mm radius sphere centered at at +/- 30 28 -4. Coordinates are based on the stereotactic atlas by Talairach & Tournoux [19].
