Impact of depression, fatigue, and global measure
of cortical volume on cognitive impairment in multiple sclerosis

cortical volume in rats vulnerable to alcohol addiction (2012) Neuroimage, 69, pp. 112 - 119 9.
Surface area abnormalities and cortical thickness were assessed in individuals with migraine, 2 components of
cortical volume providing complementary and different bits of information.
In summary, when considering associations between experience and brain morphometry, cortical thickness and surface area should be assessed separately, rather than reporting on the composite metric
of cortical volume (Winkler et al., 2010; Raznahan et al., 2011).
o» (N)» refers to neurodegeneration or neuronal injury and dysfunction, as measured for example by hippocampal volume,
cortical volume / thickness, or CSF total tau (T - tau).
«We wanted to learn more about how the brain is different in Down Syndrome compared to typical development, so we measured surface area and thickness, which both contribute to
cortical volume but are determined by different genetic factors.»
We report on the patterns of asymmetries of various MRI - derived cortical phenotypes, namely cortical thickness (CT), cortical surface area (CSA),
cortical volume (CV) and sulcal depth (SULC), as well as on their cross-relationships.
There is increasing evidence that children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have age - related differences from controls in
cortical volume (CV).
Much of these studies have relied on voxel - based morphometry, providing estimates of
the cortical volume of the brain.
