Evaluation of White Matter Tracts in Autistic Individuals: A Review of Diffusion Tensor Imaging Studies
Introduction: Many cognitive and social deficits in autism are caused by abnormal functional connections between brain networks, which are manifested by impaired integrity of white matter tracts. White matter tracts are like the "highways" of the brain, which allow fast and efficient communication in different areas of the brain. The purpose of this article is to review the results of autism st...
متن کاملBrain MR diffusion tensor imaging in Kennedy's disease.
INTRODUCTION Kennedy's disease (KD) is a progressive degenerative disorder affecting lower motor neurons. We investigated the correlation between disease severity and whole brain white matter microstructure, including upper motor neuron tracts, by using diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) in eight patients with KD in whom disease severity was evaluated using the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functio...
متن کاملMR imaging, MR spectroscopy, and diffusion tensor imaging of sequential studies in neonates with encephalopathy.
BACKGROUND Although the imaging, spectroscopic, and diffusion characteristics of brains of infants with neonatal encephalopathy have been described, the time course during which these changes evolve is not clear. The results of sequential MR imaging studies--including anatomic MR imaging, proton MR spectroscopy, and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)--of 10 patients enrolled prospectively in a stud...
متن کاملA review of diffusion tensor imaging studies in schizophrenia.
Both post-mortem and neuroimaging studies have contributed significantly to what we know about the brain and schizophrenia. MRI studies of volumetric reduction in several brain regions in schizophrenia have confirmed early speculations that the brain is disordered in schizophrenia. There is also a growing body of evidence suggesting that a disturbance in connectivity between different brain reg...
متن کاملMR diffusion tensor spectroscopy and imaging.
This paper describes a new NMR imaging modality--MR diffusion tensor imaging. It consists of estimating an effective diffusion tensor, Deff, within a voxel, and then displaying useful quantities derived from it. We show how the phenomenon of anisotropic diffusion of water (or metabolites) in anisotropic tissues, measured noninvasively by these NMR methods, is exploited to determine fiber tract ...
