To identify normal variations in the magnetic resonance imaging appearances of the corpus callosum with regard to sex and age, a prospective study was performed in 130 normal subjects. Callosal measurements were calculated by morphometric analysis. There were no significant sex differences in corpus callosum area or the callosal subregions. The absolute area did not decrease significantly with aging in normal males or females. However, age-related changes of callosal configuration were shown by a decrease in the ratio of the rostrum and genu to the splenium.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.
