Description |
The aim of the present study is to examine the MR appearance of human glaucoma and to correlate the disease stage with the degree of lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) atrophy. In addition, proton density weighted images (PD) are compared to images tailored for assessment of gray matter (GM) with respect to quantification of LGN atrophy, and measurements of LGN height and volume are compared with respect to their correlation with glaucoma stage. |
