New Brain Charts for All Ages
Introduction
Scientists made new charts for the human brain. These charts show how the brain changes from birth to 100 years old.
Main Body
The scientists looked at 35,120 brain scans from people around the world. They studied the white matter in the brain. This is the part that connects different areas of the brain. They found that the brain grows and changes. Some parts of the brain grow fast when people are young. Later, these parts change again as people get old. These charts help doctors find brain problems. For example, the charts show changes in people with Alzheimer's disease. The doctors can see if a person's brain is different from a healthy brain.
Conclusion
Now, doctors have a free map of the brain. They can use it to find brain diseases early.
