The Significance of Age‐Related Enlargement of the Cerebral Ventricles in Healthy Men and Women Measured by Quantitative Computed X‐Ray Tomography

Abstract

In unequivocally healthy individuals, gender plays an important role in age-associated central cerebral atrophy as measured by progressive ventricular enlargement. Increase in ventricle volume independent of age, does not explain normal age-related declines seen in WPSS scores.
