Association of Social Engagement with Brain Volumes Assessed by Structural MRI
We tested the hypothesis that social engagement is associated with larger brain volumes in a cohort study of 348 older male former lead manufacturing workers (n = 305) and population-based controls (n = 43), age 48 to 82. Social engagement was measured using a summary scale derived from confirmatory factor analysis. The volumes of 20 regions of interest (ROIs), including total brain, total gray...
متن کاملNeuropathologic correlates of regional brain volumes assessed with ex-vivo MRI
Target Audience: Researchers in MRI of Alzheimer’s disease and other age-related neuropathologies. Purpose: Brain atrophy is considered a biomarker of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology in clinical trials and biomarker studies. However, AD pathology in the elderly commonly coexists with other neuropathologies that may also lead to atrophy [1], and only a handful of studies have combined brain M...
متن کاملStructural Findings in the Brain MRI of Patients with Acute Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Background: Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning may lead to hypoxic/anoxic injury and eventually ischemic encephalopathy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has a well-recognized role in assessment of the severity of brain damage caused by CO poisoning. In this study, we aimed to present and analyze the structural abnormalities in the brain MRI and especially in diffusion weighted MRI (DWI) images in ...
متن کاملRobust multiresolution alignment of MRI brain volumes.
An algorithm for the automatic alignment of MRI volumes of the human brain was developed, based on techniques adopted from the computer vision literature for image motion estimation. Most image registration techniques rely on the assumption that corresponding voxels in the two volumes have equal intensity, which is not true for MRI volumes acquired with different coils and/or pulse sequences. I...
متن کاملAdult nasal volumes assessed by acoustic rhinometry.
UNLABELLED Acoustic rhinometry allows an objective and non-invasive assessment of nasal geometry. AIM The present study aimed at determining the volumes of specific segments of the nasal cavity in healthy adults including the nasopharynx, using acoustic rhinometry. STUDY DESIGN A clinical prospective analysis. CASES AND METHOD Thirty volunteers with no evidence of nasal obstruction, aged ...
