Journal ArticleDOI

Brain development during childhood and adolescence: a longitudinal MRI study.

TL;DR: This large-scale longitudinal pediatric neuroimaging study confirmed linear increases in white matter, but demonstrated nonlinear changes in cortical gray matter, with a preadolescent increase followed by a postadolescent decrease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic mapping of human cortical development during childhood through early adulthood

TL;DR: The dynamic anatomical sequence of human cortical gray matter development between the age of 4-21 years using quantitative four-dimensional maps and time-lapse sequences reveals that higher-order association cortices mature only after lower-order somatosensory and visual cortices are developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Why do many psychiatric disorders emerge during adolescence

TL;DR: The peak age of onset for many psychiatric disorders is adolescence, a time of remarkable physical and behavioural changes and answers to these questions might enable the understanding of mental health during adolescence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain development in children and adolescents: insights from anatomical magnetic resonance imaging.

TL;DR: Key findings related to brain anatomical changes during childhood and adolescent are increases in white matter volumes throughout the brain and regionally specific inverted U-shaped trajectories of gray matter volumes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is characterized by a delay in cortical maturation

TL;DR: Maturation to progress in a similar manner regionally in both children with and without ADHD, with primary sensory areas attaining peak cortical thickness before polymodal, high-order association areas, and there was a marked delay in ADHD in attainingpeak thickness throughout most of the cerebrum.
