ACC: anterior cingulated cortex; Cal: calcarine; Cau: caudate; CL: contralesional hemisphere; DLPFC: dorsolateral prefrontal cortex; IL: ipsilesional hemisphere; ITG: inferior temporal gyrus; LPC: lateral parietal cortex; MCC: middle cingulate cortex; MOG: middle occipital gyrus; MPFC: the medial part of prefrontal cortex; MTG: middle temporal gyrus; ParaHP: parahippocampal; PCC: posterior cingulate cortex; Pcu: precuneus; Th: thalamus. The star (*) represents that the rsFC shows significant group difference between stroke patients and healthy controls.
