Several studies have shown a relation between the size of corpus callosum (CC) and outcome in preterm infants. Three-dimensional ultrasound (3D-US) offers new perspectives in cerebral imaging. To ...
Agenesis of the corpus callosum was part of the mysterious brain physiology of Laurence Kim Peek, the remarkable savant portrayed by Dustin Hoffman in the 1987 movie Rain Man (pictured).
Agenesis of the corpus callosum is a birth defect where part of the brain doesn’t grow properly. Learn about the causes, symptoms, and treatment options for this condition today.
The corpus callosum is the largest white matter fiber bundle in the human brain, the major interhemispheric commissure that connects the majority of the neocortical areas, and is important for ...
A group of researchers at UC San Francisco and UC Berkeley have mapped the three-dimensional global connections within the brains of seven adults who have genetic malformations that leave them without ...
The largest pathway of interactivity in the brain is the corpus callosum, the very large connective pathway between the right and left cerebral hemispheres. This talk will focus on research into the ...
Agenesis of the corpus callosum is caused by a disruption to the development of the fetal brain between the 3rd and 12th weeks of pregnancy. In many cases, the cause of ACC or other callosal ...
The larger a person's corpus callosum, the less involved their right hemisphere is in language processing ... (3D pixel), and is therefore more reliable. Journal. PLOS One. DOI.
The corpus callosum (in red) connects the left and right cerebral hemispheres and facilitates communication between the so-called "right brain" and "left brain." Source: Life Science Databases ...
This 3D image shows the brain of a person born without a corpus callosum connecting the two hemispheres. A neuronal bundle (in yellow) has formed to connect the right brain (with blue section) to ...
Corpus callosotomy is successful in stopping drop attacks, or atonic seizures in which a person suddenly loses muscle tone and falls to the ground, in about 50% to 75% of cases.
