P27: Brain Network as a Pivotal Part in Intelligence Function

Neuroimaging findings have proposed that some brain regions including the precuneus, posterior cingulate, and medial prefrontal cortex play an essential role of a structural core in the brain. Network organization endures rapid alterations in development with changes in axonal synaptic connectivity, white matter volume, and the thickness of corresponding cortical regions. Structural maturation ...

Abstract The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between perfectionism, as a personality trait, and the brain structure. A total of 49 volunteers (23 women, 26 men) participated in this study by filling a Farsi version of the Positive and Negative Perfectionism Scale (FPANPS) and attending an MRI session. Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) method was used to analyze the MRI...

Quantitative Comparison of SPM, FSL, and Brainsuite for Brain MR Image Segmentation

Background: Accurate brain tissue segmentation from magnetic resonance (MR) images is an important step in analysis of cerebral images. There are software packages which are used for brain segmentation. These packages usually contain a set of skull stripping, intensity non-uniformity (bias) correction and segmentation routines. Thus, assessment of the quality of the segmented gray matter (GM), ...

Structural brain changes throughout adulthood

Introduction The advent of quantitative techniques based on the analyses of MRI structural data, such as Voxel-Based Morphometry (VBM) and volumetric analyses, has allowed a sensitive detection of regional patterns of grey matter (GM) and white matter (WM) volume loss with ageing (Sowell et al., 2003; Walhovd et al., 2005). More recently, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been used to quantify...

Age-related networks of regional covariance in MRI gray matter: Reproducible multivariate patterns in healthy aging

Healthy aging is associated with brain volume reductions that involve the frontal cortex, but also affect other brain regions. We sought to identify an age-related network pattern of MRI gray matter using a multivariate statistical model of regional covariance, the Scaled Subprofile Model (SSM) with voxel based morphometry (VBM) in 29 healthy adults, 23-84 years of age (Group 1). In addition, w...
