Regional Grey Matter Structure Differences between Transsexuals and Healthy Controls—A Voxel Based Morphometry Study
Gender identity disorder (GID) refers to transsexual individuals who feel that their assigned biological gender is incongruent with their gender identity and this cannot be explained by any physical intersex condition. There is growing scientific interest in the last decades in studying the neuroanatomy and brain functions of transsexual individuals to better understand both the neuroanatomical...
متن کاملGrey matter volume in healthy and epileptic beagles using voxel-based morphometry – a pilot study
BACKGROUND One of the most common chronic neurological disorders in dogs is idiopathic epilepsy (IE) diagnosed as epilepsy without structural changes in the brain. In the current study the hypothesis should be proven that subtle grey matter changes occur in epileptic dogs. Therefore, magnetic resonance (MR) images of one dog breed (Beagles) were used to obtain an approximately uniform brain sha...
متن کاملVoxel-Based Morphometry
The human brain is in a state of constant change and adaptation. This may be driven either by normal developmental or aging processes or by the effects of learning, training, and new occurrences in daily life. In addition to these aforementioned changes, more systematic influences such as gender, disease, and genes affect the brain’s structure. Using magnetic resonance imaging, brain changes an...
متن کاملWord retrieval decline in midlife: a voxel-based morphometry study
There is currently little understanding on whether significant word retrieval difficulties appear during midlife and if so, whether they relate to decrease in grey matter (GM) density that accompanies aging. To answer this question, we studied retrieval of proper names in 125 cognitively healthy middle-aged persons (49.7, ±3.2) comparing their performance on a tip-of-the-tongue (TOT) task with ...
متن کاملA voxel based morphometry study on mild cognitive impairment.
BACKGROUND Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is the most widely used concept in classifying cognitive impairment in the elderly who do not fulfil the criteria for dementia. MCI is considered to confer an increased risk of progressing to dementia and most often Alzheimer's disease (AD). Various approaches such as imaging of the brain have been applied to predict the conversion of MCI to dementia. ...
