For each subject, we derived a summary score representing deviations in whole brain white matter (1) extracellular free water volume fraction (VF) and (2) free water-corrected fractional anisotropy (fw-FA ...
Patients underwent brain MRI and clinical neuropsychological assessment in the subacute (2-weeks) and chronic (6-months) post-injury period, and controls underwent a single MRI. ...

Identifying the Neural Correlates of Executive Functions in Early Cerebral Microangiopathy: A Combined VBM and DTI Study
2012
Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism
We found a clear distinction between speeded and nonspeeded executive measures in relationship to imaging parameters. ...
Correlations were found in frontal and parietal areas exclusively with speeded, but not with speed-corrected executive measures. The VBM analyses showed reduced gray matter in frontal areas. ...
However, the speed component is overrepresented in executive function results and interpretations. ...

Free water: A marker of age-related modifications of the cingulum white matter and its association with cognitive decline
2020
PLoS ONE
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of free water elimination on diffusion measures of the cingulum in a group of 68 healthy elderly individuals. ...
Moreover, free water content and mean diffusivity measured along the cingulum were independently associated with changes in verbal fluency. ...
Moreover, free water content per se appears to be a relevant parameter to describe age-related modifications of the white matter and its association with executive functioning. ...
