FIG 5. The diffusion constants measured from the thalamus (circles) by using ROIs are plotted against age of the subjects. Data do not show age dependency. A linear fit to data (solid line) is also shown (Dav = 0.734 + 0.000301 x Age, r = 0.174, P > .29).
FIG 6. The distribution width (
) of the brain diffusion constants measured from distribution maps (circles) are plotted against age of the subjects. Data do not show age dependency. A linear fit to the data (solid line) is also shown ( = 0.163 + 0.000227 x Age, r = 0.274, P > .10).
