↵3-150 p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 with respect to confidence intervals calculated in 10 age matched normal controls (see methods).
↵3-151 p = 0.06; ‡ this region includes the lateral occipital cortex and the cuneus. CBF = cerebral blood flow; CMRO2 = cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen; OEF = oxygen extraction fraction.
