| The
corpus callosum is the dense collection of nerves which connects
the two hemispheres of the brain. The method for measuring the size
of the corpus callosum using REGION
quantifies not only the cross sectional area of the structure as
visualized on the central sagittal image (see below), it also subdivides
the callosum into subregions calculated from the center of mass
of the traced outline.
|
|
| This
allows exploration of callosal volume loss of specific areas
of the callosum, as well as relative measures of the structure,
such as slenderness and bulbosity (below). |
