Remote cortical atrophy and language outcomes after chronic left subcortical stroke with aphasia
ObjectiveSubcortical stroke can cause a variety of language deficits. However, the neural mechanisms underlying subcortical aphasia after stroke remain incompletely elucidated.

Basic Visual Function and Cortical Thickness Patterns in Posterior Cortical Atrophy [PDF]
Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) is characterized by a progressive decline in higher-visual object and space processing, but the extent to which these deficits are underpinned by basic visual impairments is unknown. This study aimed to assess basic and higher-order visual deficits in 21 PCA patients.

Change in brain volume and cortical thickness after behavioral and surgical weight loss intervention
Obesity is associated with reduced cortical thickness and brain volume, which may be related to poor nutrition. Given that brain atrophy in anorexia nervosa recovers with nutritional improvements and weight gain, it is worth examining how brain structure

Effect of age at onset on cortical thickness and cognition in posterior cortical atrophy [PDF]
Age at onset (AAO) has been shown to influence the phenotype of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but how it affects atypical presentations of AD remains unknown. Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) is the most common form of atypical AD. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of AAO on cortical thickness and cognitive function in 98 PCA patients.

Effects of HIV Infection, methamphetamine dependence and age on cortical thickness, area and volume
Objective: This study examined the effects of HIV infection, methamphetamine dependence and their interaction on cortical thickness, area and volume, as well as the potential interactive effects on cortical morphometry of HIV and methamphetamine with age.

Increased Cortical Thickness in Alzheimer's Disease
ObjectivePatients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) have diffuse brain atrophy, but some regions, such as the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), are spared and may even show increase in size compared to controls. The extent, clinical significance, and mechanisms associated with increased cortical thickness in AD remain unknown.

Relevance of cortical thickness in migraine sufferers [PDF]
Migraine is a very widespread and debilitating disease, and one of the most common disorders of the nervous system, according to the WHO. Prevalence studies estimate that migraine affects 15–25% of women and 6–8% of men [1–4], and more than 2.5 million people in North America have at least one day of migraine per week.

Robust Cortical Thickness Measurement with LOGISMOS-B [PDF]
Cortical thickness (CT) is an important morphometric measure that has implications for psychiatric and neurologic processes. We propose a novel approach for automatically computing CT in an accurate and robust manner using LOGISMOS-B: Layered Optimal Graph Image Segmentation of Multiple Objects and Surfaces for the Brain.
