Active View: The transparent blue matrix shows activity that is 55% of the brain’s maximum. This gives us a basic outline of the brain’s anatomy, and it allows us to examine internal structures of high activity: Red areas show activity falling in the upper 15% of the brain maximum, and white areas are in the upper 8%.

Surface View: This smooth view shows all activity that falls within 55% of the brain’s maximum. Bumpy areas and places that do not ‘fill in’ are areas of low activity.
