Hi Mira,
If the map you provided is of uncorrected p-values at say p=0.05, then
you appear to have just a couple small regions of group differences, so
it isn't surprising that after FDR nothing would survive. 

The result is what it is, and unless you had specific a priori
hypotheses regarding regions that would be involved (i.e., to which you
could restrict your testing), then there isn't much you can do.

cheers,
-MH
