Reduced structural connectivity in cortico-striatal-thalamic network in neonates with congenital heart disease

Impaired brain development has been observed in newborns with congenital heart disease (CHD). We performed graph theoretical analyses and network-based statistics (NBS) to assess global brain network topology and identify subnetworks of altered …

Fixel-based analysis of the preterm brain: Disentangling bundle-specific white matter microstructural and macrostructural changes in relation to clinical risk factors

Diffusion MRI (dMRI) studies using the tensor model have identified abnormal white matter development associated with perinatal risk factors in preterm infants studied at term equivalent age (TEA). However, this model is an oversimplification of the …
