Subject Neuroimaging; Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Description It has been established that the normal human retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness decreases with age. Meanwhile, brain volume and weight decline by around 5% per decade after age 40. While the relationship between the ganglion cell layer complex and temporal lobe size has been described, the relationship between brain volume and RNFL thickness has not been established. The present study aims to study the relationship between anatomical structures measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and the normal brain volume calculated utilizing specialized software based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
