Spatial correlation of resting state activity alterations in premature-born adults with nuclear imaging derived neurotransmitter maps

Background: The brains of premature-born subjects show a wide range of structural and functional differences compared to full-term (FT) born controls [1, 2]. However, the effect of prematurity on neurotransmitter systems in humans remains largely unknown. Recently, a new tool for linking MRI data to...

Description
Summary:Background: The brains of premature-born subjects show a wide range of structural and functional differences compared to full-term (FT) born controls [1, 2]. However, the effect of prematurity on neurotransmitter systems in humans remains largely unknown. Recently, a new tool for linking MRI data to neurotransmitter information based on nuclear imaging derived estimates was introduced [3]. Methods: We included 99 very-preterm/very-low-birthweight (VP/VLBW;
