Patterns of cerebellar white matter involvement in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Top half: cerebellar white matter changes in ALS compared to healthy controls using a skeletonised cerebellar region-of-interest mask corrected for multiple comparisons, age and gender at p<0.05. Bottom half: cerebellar white matter differences between C9orf72 negative and positive patients with ALS, accounting for age, gender and disease duration. threshold-free cluster enhancement (TFCE) corrected at p<0.05 (AD, axial diffusivity; MD, mean diffusivity; RD, radial diffusivity).
