Concomitant Fractional Anisotropy and Volumetric Abnormalities in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy



Figure 1. DTI and volumetric ROI approaches.

A. Masks used for calculation of ROI mean FA. Examples shown are hippocampus (i), parahippocampal gyrus (ii), temporal lobe white matter (iii), and thalamus (iv). B. Automated labelling and volume estimation using FreeSurfer in a patient with right TLEhs. A supratentorial axial view (with infratentorial brain removed) is used to emphasize right hippocampal atrophy (red arrow) in this case. Yellow = hippocampus, blue = amygdala, purple = lateral ventricle, green/white = right/left cerebral white matter, pink = cortex. R, right. L, left.

BStem CSA: Microstructural Cerebral Damage w/Cerebral Microangiopathy

DTI changes of CSA-CSR patients were most prominent in the brainstem.  Subtle microstructural changes in the brainstem might be a neuroanato...
