Abstract:
Objective To study findings of the white matter of nomal children on color tensor map and evaluate the diffusion tensor imaging in the assessing development of the brain. Methods DTI was obtained in 89 normal children aging from 2 days to 18 years.Their color tensor maps were generated and analyzed.Results Their color tensor maps revealed different findings due to aging;with the increase of the age,the fiber tracts showed were more and well defined.Conclusion The color tensor map is superior to the routine MR in assessing the development of the white matter.
