It is intriguing to explore the relationship among
different connectivity measures in the brain. The
current study compared the volume based connectivity and
functional connectivity from 152 (volume based dataset)
and 42 (functional dataset) rats, and revealed
significant correlation between those two connectivity
measures. Although both connectivity measures were
negatively correlated with physical distances between
ROIs, their robust correlation still remains after
regression of physical distances.
