Indices of Regional Brain Atrophy: Formulae and Nomenclature.
The pattern of brain atrophy helps to discriminate normal age-related changes from neurodegenerative diseases. Albeit indices of regional brain atrophy have proven to be a parameter useful in the early diagnosis and differential diagnosis of some neurodegenerative diseases, indices of absolute regional atrophy still have some important limitations. We propose using indices of relative atrophy f...
متن کاملWhole-brain and regional brain atrophy in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recent evidence from neuropsychologic and neuroimaging studies suggests that central nervous system involvement in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) extends beyond motor neurons. Our purpose was to obtain measures of global and regional atrophy in nondemented patients with ALS to assess subtle structural brain changes. METHODS MR images, acquired from 16 patients and ...

15 صفحه اولRegional brain atrophy in children with multiple sclerosis
We used cross-sectional tensor-based morphometry to visualize reduced volume in the whole brains of pediatric patients with multiple sclerosis, relative to healthy controls. As a marker of local volume difference, we used the Jacobian determinant of the deformation field that maps each subject to a standard space. To properly assess abnormal differences in volume in this age group, it is necess...
متن کاملEffectiveness of Cortical Atrophy Scale and Indirect Indices of Brain Atrophy to Predict Chronic Subdural Hematoma in Older Patients
OBJECTIVE To determine whether baseline cerebral atrophy can predict the rate of future chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) after head trauma and compare indirect markers of brain atrophy with volumetric analysis of computed tomography (CT). METHODS Single institution case-control study involving 1,476 patients who visited our hospital after head trauma from January 2009 to December 2014. Forty-...
