Abstract:OBJECTIVES. We investigated whether there were atrophic changes in grey matter (pons, midbrain, and thalamus) in migraine patients. Vertebral artery diameters were also evaluated.
MATERIAL AND METHODS. The cranial MRI images of 49 adult migraine-diagnosed patients and 49 adult subjects with normal cranial MRI results were included in the study. In both groups, pons, midbrain, and thalamus volumes, as well as vertebral artery diameters were measured.
