Abnormal cortical development after premature birth shown by altered allometric scaling of brain growth.

Abnormal cortical development after premature birth shown by altered allometric scaling of brain growth.

<h4>Background</h4>We postulated that during ontogenesis cortical surface area and cerebral volume are related by a scaling law whose exponent gives a quantitative measure of cortical development. We used this approach to investigate the hypothesis that premature termination of the intra...
