The aim of the study was to compare the volumes according to MR morphometry and diffusion values according to diffusion-tensor MRI (DT-MRI) of the corpus callosum in children with spastic diplegia. Methods: the main group consisted of 12 children aged from 1 year 8 months to 4 years 3 months, the comparison group — 5 children with normal motor development, who did not have motor impairments, at the age from 1 year and 3 months up to 3 years 8 months. All patients underwent MR-morphometry, DTI. A comparison was made between the volumes and diffusion values of the corpus callosum between groups. Results: Significant differences were found (p<0,05) in the volume of the genu, splenium and the middle third of the trunk of the corpus callosum. Significant differences (p<0,05) of diffusion values in the middle and posterior third of the trunk of the corpus callosum were also revealed. The data obtained demonstrate the diffuse nature of pathological changes in the corpus callosum in children with spastic diplegia.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the relationship between functional anisotropy (FA) and neuropsychological evaluation in concussion.MethodsDiffusion tensor MRI included FA of the Brain and neuropsychological evaluation were conducted on 10 patients with concussion who were diagnosed from April 2017 to March 2018. FA was extracted from 2 regions of interest in Corpus callosum (CC) and corticospinal tract (CT). Detailed neuropsychological testing with an emphasis on Working memory (WM) and Processing speed (PS) was also conducted. The FA value in that 2 regions were compared between the 2 groups of 5 patients (group F) who failed either in WM or PS and 5 cases (group NF) who did not admit it.ResultsMean FA values in CC and CT in the Group F were 0.70 and 0.52. Mean FA values in CC and CT in the Group NF were 0.48 and 0.55.ConclusionsOur result suggests that the FA value of CC did not explain the significant fluctuation of the neuropsychological function. However, FA value in CT were shown to explain the fluctuation of WM and PS.
