Studying how the healthy human brain develops is important to understand early
pathological mechanisms and to assess the influence of fetal or perinatal events on later life …

Dynamic macrostructural and microstructural changes take place from the mid-fetal stage to
2 years after birth. Delineating structural changes of the brain during early development …

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been used widely to show structural brain changes
during both development and aging. Lifespan studies are valuable because they connect …

Objective: Preterm infants are exposed to multiple painful procedures in the neonatal
intensive care unit (NICU) during a period of rapid brain development. Our aim was to …

The brain contains more than 100 billion neurons that communicate with each other via
axons for the formation of complex neural networks. The structural mapping of such …

The development of cortical gray matter, white matter (WM) volume, and WM microstructure
in adolescence is beginning to be fairly well characterized by structural magnetic resonance …

The human connectome is the result of an elaborate developmental trajectory. Acquiring
diffusion-weighted imaging and resting-state fMRI, we studied connectome formation during …

The thoroughly updated Fourth Edition of this acclaimed reference describes and illustrates
the full range of pediatric disorders diagnosable by modern neuroimaging. This edition …

Adolescence is a time of increased divergence between males and females in physical
characteristics, behavior, and risk for psychopathology. Here we will review data regarding …

Myelination, the elaboration of myelin surrounding neuronal axons, is essential for normal
brain function. The development of the myelin sheath enables rapid synchronized …
