Inclusive masking -- simple mask the results, but the significance is based on the whole brain data. SVC -- mask the results, recompute the significance based on the reduced search volume. You could use the inclusive mask if you wanted to show only a portion of the results and correct for the number of comparisons at the whole brain level.
