Development and aging of brain midline structures: assessment with MR imaging.
Abstract
The development and aging of four brain midline structures--the pituitary gland, pons, cerebellar vermis, and corpus callosum--were studied. The dimensions and area of these structures were measured by means of midsagittal magnetic resonance imaging. The study group consisted of 94 patients newborn to 15 years old and 49 patients and seven volunteers 16-60 years old. Except for growth spurts in the 1st year and in the 10-15-year age range, the pituitary gland showed linear growth. The pons, cerebellar vermis, and corpus callosum all showed exponential growth. The cerebellar vermis showed the sharpest 1st-year growth spurt, followed by the corpus callosum and the pons. The pituitary gland showed a decrease in size in the 51-60-year age range. The corpus callosum also showed a tendency to diminish in size but to a lesser degree. There were no statistically significant declines in the size of either the pons or the cerebellar vermis in the 51-60-year age range.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
