Results from linear regression analyses testing for group differences in cerebral cortex volume, cerebral white matter volume and lateral ventricles volume between patients with anorexia nervosa and healthy controls. Scanner was included in the analyses as covariate. Volumes are in mm³. Total cerebral cortex volume, volume inside the pial surface, minus tissue inside the ribbon that is not a part of the cortex; cerebral white matter volume, volume inside the white surfaces; lateral ventricles volume, combined left and right lateral and inferior lateral ventricles
