Abstract

Objective: In this study, our purpose was to assess the relationship between handedness, footedness and the morphological differences of certain intracranial structures on MR images. Material and Methods: 63 healthy male and 52 healthy female individuals were included in the study. In each subject, 16 measurements of intracranial structures were taken on MR images. Area of corpus callosum, also left and right cerebral hemispheres, length of CC, width of genu (r1), truncus (r2), isthmus (r3) and splenium of CC (r4) and width of corresponding cerebral hemisphere were measured. Results: There was a statistically significant difference in R3 (width of the corresponding cerebral hemisphere to r3) distance between those using their right feet and those using their left feet. Angle of genu in right-handed people was greater in males than in females. Angle of genu in cases using the left foot was greater in females than in males for standing on one leg. Conclusion: Morphometric assessment of CC with MR imaging related to handedness and footedness may be useful in demonstrating the relationship between callosal morphology, gender differences and extremity preference in neuroscience. Turkish Başlık: Corpus Callosum ve Hemispherium Cerebri'lerin MRI ile Morfometrik Değerlendirmesi Anahtar Kelimeler: Corpus callosum; el tercih edilirliği; ayak tercih edilirliği; manyetik rezonans görüntüleme Amaç: Bu çalışmada amacımız, MR görüntülerinde çeşitli intrakranyal yapıların morfolojik farklılıkları ile el ve ayak tercih edilirliği arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmekti. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma 63 erkek ve 52 kadın sağlıklı bireyi kapsıyordu. Her bir bireyde intrakranyal yapıların 16 ölçümü Manyetik Rezonans görüntülerinde yapıldı. Corpus callosum (CC), sol ve sağ hemispherium cerebri alanları, CC uzunluğu, CC'un genu (r1), truncus (r2), isthmus (r3) ve splenium (r4) kısımlarının genişliği ve bu kısımlara uyan hemispherium cerebri'lerin genişliğini ölçtük. Bulgular: Sağ ile sol ayağını tercih edenler arasında R3 (r3'e uyan hemispherium cerebri'lerin genişliği) mesafesinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık vardı. Sağ elini tercih edenlerde genu açısı erkeklerde kadınlardan daha büyüktü. Tek ayak üzerinde durma için sol ayağını kullanan vakalarda genu açısı kadınlarda erkeklerden daha büyüktü. Sonuç: El ve ayak tercih edilirliğine ilişkin MR görüntüleriyle CC'un morfometrik değerlendirmesi sinir biliminde CC'un morfolojisi, cinsiyet farklılıkları ve ekstremite tercihi arasındaki ilişkiyi göstermede yararlı olabilir.
