Abstract
This article visualizes the three-dimensional view of t-statistics for the lip movement experiment. It also visualizes the t-contrast image. These three dimensional views help the radiologist to understand the volume of activations in the brain. The 3D view of the t-statistics of the subject under study looks like a piece of ginger and hence is called the “ginger effect of t-statistics”.
