Nonlinear scaling regions are more widely distributed in adults than in children. Therefore, we suspect that individual brain regional growth might be affected by “initial” brain size. 
Vertexwise based scaling map; upper panel shows significant scaling vertices in children, lower panel shows significant scaling vertices in adults; legend indicates (coeffiecient - 1)
DKT atlas based scaling map; upper panel shows significant scaling regions in children, lower panel shows significant scaling regions in adults; red regions indicate positive scaling, blue regions indicate negative scaling
