Abstract

In volumetric brain imaging analysis, volumes of brain structures are typically assumed to be proportional or linearly related to intracranial volume ( ICV ). However, evidence abounds that many brain structures have power law relationships with ICV . To take this relationship into account in volumetric imaging analysis, we propose a power law based method—the power-proportion method—for ICV correction. The performance of the new method is demonstrated using data from the PREDICT-HD study.
