Cortical and subcortical morphometric changes in patients with frontal focal cortical dysplasia type II

This study investigates the morphometric changes in the brains of patients with frontal focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) Type II, distinguishing between right and left FCD, using voxel-based morphometry (VBM), surface-based morphometry (SBM), and subcortical shape analysis. The study included 53 patie...

Zusammenfassung:This study investigates the morphometric changes in the brains of patients with frontal focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) Type II, distinguishing between right and left FCD, using voxel-based morphometry (VBM), surface-based morphometry (SBM), and subcortical shape analysis. The study included 53 patients with frontal lobe FCD Type II (28 left-sided, 25 right-sided) and 66 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. VBM and SBM analyses were conducted using Computational Anatomy Toolbox 12.8 (CAT12.8) and Statistical Parametric Mapping 12 (SPM12). Subcortical structures were segmented using FSL-FIRST. Statistical analyses were performed using non-parametric tests, with a significance threshold of p
