“…The Kolomogorov-Smirnov analysis of the volume data showed that the distributions of the measurements did not differ significantly from a normal distribution (P Ͼ .10), justifying the use of parametric statistics. There was no significant difference in brain volumes of subjects with Line diagram of the divisions of the CC used for regional width measurements and factor structure by using the method of Denenberg et al (1991) 13 and Denenberg et al (1991).…”

“…The software for this task was developed locally (P.E.E.C.) but was based on the principles described by Denenberg et al 13 This The stability of the factor structure has been replicated within and between laboratories. 17,18 Sixteen-bit raw image files were created for each DTI dataset and corrected for eddy current artifacts and subject motion by using a proprietary motion-correction tool (PRIDE, Philips Healthcare).…”

“…The aim of our study was to measure the size of the CC in adults with NF-1 and to compare it with that in control subjects by using the callosal measurement methodology described by Denenberg et al 13,14 In addition, DTI was performed and may shed light on the microstructure of the CC in healthy subjects and those with NF-1.…”

“…For further analysis, Cartesian coordinates of CC tracings were imported into KSS Stereology, a program originally developed by Denenberg et al (1991a) and rewritten in Java for research at the Travis Research Institute. The 99 width divisions were obtained by the procedures of Denenberg et al (1991b), as illustrated in Figure 1.…”

The regional distribution of degeneration of the corpus callosum (CC) in dementia is not yet clear. This study compared regional CC size in participants (n 5 179) from the Cache County Memory and Aging Study. Participants represented a range of cognitive function: Alzheimer's disease (AD), vascular dementia (VaD), mild ambiguous (MA-cognitive problems, but not severe enough for diagnosis of dementia), and healthy older adults. CC outlines obtained from midsagittal magnetic resonance images were divided into 99 equally spaced widths. Factor analysis of these callosal widths identified 10 callosal regions. Multivariate analysis of variance revealed significant group differences for anterior and posterior callosal regions. Post-hoc pairwise comparisons of CC regions in patient groups as compared to the control group (controlling for age) revealed trends toward smaller anterior and posterior regions, but not all were statistically significant. As compared to controls, significantly smaller anterior and posterior CC regions were found in the AD group; significantly smaller anterior CC regions in the VaD group; but no significant CC regional differences in the MA group. Findings suggest that dementia-related CC atrophy occurs primarily in the anterior and posterior portions. (JINS, 2008, 14, 414-423.)

“…Morphometric analyses in non-human species have included rodents [Suitsu, 1920;Denenberg, 1981;Rosen et al, 1990;Denenberg et al, 1991;Fitch and Denenberg, 1998] and higher primates [De Lacoste and Woodward, 1988], but very few studies have directly addressed callosal diversity among several species [Suitsu, 1920;Abbie, 1939;Denenberg et al, 1991;Rilling and Insel, 1999].…”

Cross-Species and Intraspecies Morphometric Analysis of the Corpus Callosum

A cross-species morphometric study of the corpus callosum was performed in the rat, rabbit, cat, dog, horse, cow and human. Across species, the results indicate a strong, although less than linear, dependency of callosal size on brain weight. This relation tends to lose significance within species. This is consistent with other morphometric studies indicating a tendency to decrease the correlations between morphometric variables in within-species analyses as compared to between-species analyses. There are species differences in the relative size of some callosal segments particularly in the posterior third, which is larger in frontally-looking species than in laterally-looking species. No sex differences in callosal size were detected in any of the species examined. These findings are discussed in the light of possible developmental and functional correlates of the variability observed.
