Brain Morphometry

This volume presents the latest methods and approaches used to better characterize the properties of the structural human brain, and also explores various dysfunctional and non-dysfunctional neuroanatomical variations. This book is divided into 3 parts: methods, non-clinical applications, and clinical applications. The chapters in Part 1 talk about methods to study cortical thickness and the general linear model. Part 2 covers changes in brain structure from birth to adulthood, and morphometry of the corpus callosum. Part 3 discusses applications to study Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, epilepsy, Schizophrenia, and suicide. In __Neuromethods__ series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory.Cutting-edge and comprehensive, __Brain Morphometry__ is a valuable resource for students, clinicians, and researchers who are interested in this developing field.
