2408. The hidden link between cerebral white matter development and somatic height growth
J. Chad, C. Lebel
Baycrest Academy for Research and Education, Toronto, Canada
Impact: This work challenges the interpretation of WM developmental trajectories as reflecting insular monotonic growth. Instead, WM development appears to comprise not only WM growth but also WM pruning that allocates energy for somatic growth.

This resource empowers researchers to conduct precise neuroimaging analyses of infants, unlocking insights into brain structure, function, and connectivity in both health and disease.
 
Computer Number: 153
2413. MRI brain volumetric analysis of type II GM1 gangliosidosis patients treated with gene therapy
M. S. Shazeeb, C. Zoppo, J. Kolstad, J. Johnston, P. D'Souza, A. Kuhn, Z. Vardar, A. Peker, A. Hader, R. King, H. Celik, C. Lewis, C. Lindsay, Z. Rentiya, C. Lebel, S. Vedantham, B. Vachha, M. Acosta, H. GrayEdwards, C. Tifft
University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School, Worcester, United States
Impact: Our study addressed the need for quantitative neural biomarkers in type II GM1 gangliosidosis which correlated with clinical markers. Through longitudinal brain volumetric analysis using MRI, we demonstrated the efficacy of gene therapy in monitoring disease progression/regression in GM1 patients.

Impact:

This study extends previous work showing reduced hippocampal volume in this population by identifying reduced hippocampal gyrification and subfield volume in children with CHD. Altered hippocampal development may be a key determinant of neurodevelopmental impairments observed in children with CHD.

Department of Radiology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University, Xi’an, China
Impact: Abnormal T1WI signal changes in basal ganglia nuclei of hyperbilirubinemic neonates vary with MRI timing. This insight aids clinicians to avoid performing MRI scans on subjects when the time is suboptimal, which may lead to false negative results on T1WI.
