Brain Morphology In Vivo

- MRI, Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Using standardized stimulation sequences a morphologic image of the subject's brain is obtained.

Using several different sequences, the brain size and region of interest (ROI) can be determined with great accuracy, as well as the differentiation between and volume of gray and white matter. An extensive development is performed to determine the volume of individual central brain nuclei and different regions of gray matter in the cerebral cortex.

The segmentation technique also allows separate determination of the volume of the subarachnoidal space and the size of the brain ventricles.
