Reduced brain microstructural asymmetry in patients with childhood leukemia treated with chemotherapy compared with healthy controls
Fig 4
Microstructural asymmetry index (AI) as a function of age.
(A) Changes with age in the AI of axial diffusivity (AD) in the front brains (purple) and back brains (black) of the control group. (B) The corresponding results for the AI of radial diffusivity (RD) in the control group. (C, D) The corresponding results for the ALL group. ALL, acute lymphoblastic leukemia. AI > 0 indicates leftward asymmetry; AI < 0 indicates rightward asymmetry. The solid lines show the linear regression fits of the AI data.
