Spatial distribution and specific geometric and topological patterning of early sulcal folds
have been hypothesized to be under stronger genetic control and are more associated with …

The insula is a heterogeneous cortical region, comprised of three cytoarchitecturally distinct
sub-regions (agranular, dysgranular, and granular), which traverse the anterior-posterior …

Developmental dyslexia (DD) is highly heritable and previous studies observed reduced
cortical volume, white matter integrity, and functional alterations in left posterior brain …

Sulcal pits, the locally deepest points in sulci of the highly convoluted and variable cerebral
cortex, are found to be spatially consistent across human adult individuals. It is suggested …

Fetuses with congenital heart disease (CHD) have third trimester alterations in cortical
development on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, the intersulcal …

The influence of genes on cortical structures has been assessed through various
phenotypes. The sulcal pits, which are the putative first cortical folds, have for long been …

In the human brain, the appearance of cortical sulci is a complex process that takes place
mostly during the second half of pregnancy, with a relatively stable temporal sequence …

Recent interest has been growing concerning points of maximum depth within folds, the
sulcal pits, that can be used as reliable cortical landmarks. These remarkable points on the …

Cerebral cortex development undergoes a variety of processes, which provide valuable
information for the study of the developmental mechanism of cortical folding as well as its …

Background Recent neuroimaging studies suggest that autism spectrum disorder results
from abnormalities in the cortical folding pattern. Usual morphometric measurements have …
