Developmental changes of brain morphometry from healthy infancy to adulthood-Brain imaging study-

Abstract

Lifespan is a dynamic process with remarkable changes in brain structure and function. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain provides exceptional image quality for visualization and neuroanatomical classification of brain structure. The present study investigated age-related structural brain changes from infancy to early adulthood in healthy individuals, considering sex and brain hemisphere differences. These findings indicated that brain developmental trajectories differ depending on brain region, sex, and brain hemisphere.
