Summary of hippocampal volumetry

(n=72)• Right HV was significantly larger than left HV

(right: 3350.8 ± 368.4 mm3, left: 3104.3 ± 365.7 mm3, p<0.01).

• Corrected HV by ICV was larger in female than in male (p<0.01) and maintains significant right/left difference (p<0.01).

• ICV, WBV and hippocampal volume were negatively correlated with age (ICV: r=-0.43, p<0.01, WBV: r=-0.61, p<0.01).

hand knob

The measurement of frontal lobe volume on SPGR axial MRI. Centralsulcus was identified with the hand knob(solid arrow) in precentral gyrus. The posterior margin of the frontal lobe is delineated by the central sulcus. Other detailed boundary criteria was adopted from Aylward EH’s study.

Temporal lobe volumetry

After reconstruction of longitudinal axis of hippocampus, temporal lobe was segmented with the boundary of CSF, hippocampus, and posterior end of splenium.

Epilepsy

• Rostrum and rostral body of CC and left hippocampus were significantly smaller while the left frontal lobe was significantly larger in JME than in normal subjects.

• Decreased gray matter concentration (GMC) was found in left dorsolateral-prefrontal lobe, bilateral medial prefrontal lobe, and left temporalgyrus while increased GMC was found in bilateral putamen and globus pallidus, and right caudate nucleus.
