Automatic estimation of renal cortical thickness using MRI perfusion curves
Introduction: The kidney is formed fundamentally by two zones: cortex and medulla [1]. The thinning of renal cortex has been recognized as a determinant of kidney function, in fact, in patients with chronic renal deseases the lost of cortical tissue is sign of a poor outcome [2]. For this reason it is important to have a tool that would allow measuring the cortical thickness. This could be usef...
متن کاملMeasuring Cortical Thickness in Brain MRI Volumes to Detect Focal Cortical Dysplasia
Nowadays the prevalence of epilepsy is estimated to be around 1% of the population where up to 40% of the patients continue to have seizures despite optimal drug treatment [1]. In patients with drug refractory epilepsy, approximately one-half suffer from localized malformation of cortical development known as focal cortical dysplasia (FCD). There, the epilepsy surgery can yield a high chance of...
متن کاملCortical development and focal cortical dysplasia.
A brief survey of cortical development is presented, focusing on neuronal migration and its alterations. Corticogenesis is achieved through ordered temporospatial steps, via the formation of transient structures, and successive waves of cell proliferation and migration (followed by cell differentiation and maturation), and apoptotic cell death. The appearance of the proliferative ventricular zo...
متن کاملAssessing the Changes of Cortical Thickness in Alzheimer Disease With MRI Using Freesurfer Software
Introduction: In this study, we intend to determine the correlation between the thickness of the cerebral cortex and the severity of the cognitive disorder in Alzheimer disease (AD). Methods: A total of 20 (14 women and 6 men) patients diagnosed with AD with a Mean age of 72.95 years, and 10 (7 women and 3 men) cognitively normal (CN) subjects with a Mean age of 70.50 years were included in th...
