Comparison of DTI, MRI, and MRA findings by brain region for PE-F1
Brain Anatomic Regions | DTI Findings in PE-F1 Brains (Present Study) | MRI/MRA, Previous Findings in PE-F1 Brains14 | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
ROIs | Comparisons with Significant Differences between PE-F1s and Controls | Morphologic Findings in PE-F1 | Vascular Findings in PE-F1 | |
Temporal lobe | Superior longitudinal fasciculus | Volume of tract: PE-F1s > controls (P = .03) | Larger volume in temporal lobe | NS |
Limbic area | Caudate nucleus | FA: PE-F1s > controls (P = .008); volume of tract: PE-F1s > controls (P = .05) | Larger volume in right and left amygdalae | NS |
Cingulate gyrus | Parallel diffusion: PE-F1s > controls (P = .0.04) | NS | NS | |
Parietal lobe | Precuneus | NS | NS | Smaller radii globally |
Occipital lobe | Middle occipital gyrus | NS | NS | Smaller radii globally |
Cerebellum | Cerebellum | NS | Larger volume in cerebellum | NS |
Note:—NS indicates that no significant correlation or comparison was found.
