BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Mamillary body and fornix asymmetry are frequent
findings on MR imaging of the brain. We sought to determine the prevalence of asymmetry of …

PURPOSE To determine whether mamillary body atrophy is caused by deafferentation of the
mamillary body in patients with mesial temporal sclerosis. METHODS We studied 36 …

PURPOSE To investigate the clinical significance of MR-defined asymmetry of the fornix and
mamillary body for presurgical determination of the side of hippocampal sclerosis in patients …

The mammillary bodies (MBs) are classically defined as a pair of small round structures
located on the undersurface of the diencephalon. The systematic observation of MR brain …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Midsagittal morphologic changes often aid in the
diagnosis of hydrocephalus. Stretching and upward displacement of the corpus callosum …

We performed MRI on 27 patients with clinically proven temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), all
with prior EEG lateralisation, and 10 volunteers, studied to evaluate disparity in size arising …

We report three cases in which there was marked asymmetry of the mamillary bodies, noted
on MR in two and at autopsy in the third. Based on its proposed pathogenesis, we suggest …

Objective: To investigate whether the fornix and mamillary bodies, being part of the limbic
system, are abnormal in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE). Background …

Purpose Conventional volumetric analysis could not detect ipsilateral atrophy of the
mammillary body in patients with unilateral hippocampal sclerosis. By using thin-slice …

Our aim was to demonstrate lateralization morphometrically and volumetrically measuring
the main limbic structures like hippocampus, amygdala, fornix and mamillary bodies in …
