Lesion network mapping of prosopagnosia is consistent across a range of thresholds. Regions of peak lesion network overlap in the fusiform face area (FFA), anterior prefrontal cortex (APFC), middle frontal gyrus (MFG), anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), and superior frontal gyrus (SFG) are consistent across a range of t-value thresholds. At higher thresholds the percentage overlap decreases, but the topography of the lesion network and central findings remain unchanged. L = left; R = right.
