Assessing Intracortical Myelin in the Living Human Brain Using Myelinated Cortical Thickness

Assessing Intracortical Myelin in the Living Human Brain Using Myelinated Cortical Thickness

Alterations in the myelination of the cerebral cortex may underlie abnormal cortical function in a variety of brain diseases. Here, we describe a technique for investigating changes in intracortical myelin in clinical populations on the basis of cortical thickness measurements with magnetic resonan...
