Significant activation at Familywise Error (FWE) corrected within predefined regions of interest. Significant activation at uncorrected . ROI: region of interest; FV: fMRI protocol condition, attempted voluntary movement with concurrent FES; V: fMRI protocol condition, voluntary movement without FES; FP: fMRI protocol condition, FES-induced movement, with no attempt to move the ankle; P: fMRI protocol condition, passive movement (by the experimenter) of the subject’s ankle without FES; c: contralateral side; i: ipsilateral side; g.: gyrus; parac.: paracentral; sup.: superior; front.: frontal; supramarg.: supramarginal; inf.: inferior; operc.: operculum; SMA: supplementary motor area; M1: primary motor cortex; AG: angular gyrus; S1: primary somatosensory cortex; PM: premotor cortex; SII: secondary somatosensory cortex.
