Megalencephaly (MEG) is a developmental disorder characterized by brain overgrowth that
occurs due to either increased number or size of neurons and glial cells. The former may be …

Structural abnormalities of the brain are increasingly recognized in patients that suffer from
pharmacoresistant focal epilepsies by applying high‐resolution imaging techniques. In …

Neuronal positioning is a fundamental process during brain development. Abnormalities in
this process cause several types of brain malformations and are linked to …

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is an advanced MR technique that provides qualitative and
quantitative information about the micro-architecture of white matter. DTI and its post …

The development of the cerebral cortex results from complex and overlapping processes of
cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, of migration, and of organization …

After diagnosis of a fetal neurological anomaly, prospective parents want to know the best
and worst‐case scenarios and an estimation of the risk to their infant of having an atypical …

Purpose Neuroimaging techniques including structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
and functional positron emission tomography (PET) are useful in categorizing various …

Objectives Age-related volumetric differences in brain anatomy or volumetric brain analyses
in many disorders are of interest. Delineating the normal anatomical cerebellar volume is of …

The correct interpretation of neuronuclear images such as those of brain perfusion or
metabolism requires not only identification of the neuroanatomical location of the abnormal …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In hemimegalencephaly, MR imaging often reveals
midsagittal bandlike structures between the 2 lateral ventricles. To determine whether these …
