This measure has been used in previous studies to characterize regional cortical thickness differences in both Alzheimer’s Disease and schizophrenia. However, LCDM depends on semi-automated dynamic programming procedure for cortical surface ROI delineation and alternating kernel mixture for tissue segmentation procedures that were both laborious and potentially unrepeatable. Here we present a fully-automated, FreeSurfer-initialized LCDM (FSLCDM) mapping pipeline of regional cortical structures, and its application in a clinical imaging study of the cingulate gyrus in subjects with very mild Alzheimer’s disease (AD). FSLCDM Pipeline Statistical Analysis The CDFs of the anterior and the posterior cingulate gyri for all subjects were analyzed with a custom-built web interface for R (a statistical analysis package). The Mann Whitney U test and the Kolmogorov Smirnov test were performed to determine the significance of difference in pooled CDFs between the CDR 0 and CDR 0.5 subject groups. Mann-Whitney tests the null hypothesis that the location of the median of two groups is equal while Kolmogorov Smirnov (applied only if the Mann-Whitney is significant) tests the null hypothesis that the empirical distributions from two groups are identical. Subjects and Scan For validation, we selected two groups of 20 cognitively normal (clinical dementia rating CDR = 0), 20 subjects with very mild dementia of the Alzheimer type (DAT, CDR = 0.5) (see Table 1). Siemens 1.5 T, T1-weighted 3D MPRAGE (voxel resolution: 1mm x 1mm x 1.25mm, TR: 9.7ms, TE: 4.0ms, flip angle:10 o, scan time: 6.5 min) Each MR scan was processed with FSLCDM pipeline. Table 1. Subject Information Conclusions LCDMs are a powerful way to quantify cortical mantle thickness in an ROI. In this study we have developed an automated method for the anterior and posterior cingulate in cognitively normal and demented subjects. The overall shapes of the LCDM density plots are consistent with previous results. The statistical tests confirmed significant difference in LCDM of posterior cingulate gyrus between the control and diseased groups Results The pooled GM cumulative distribution functions (CDF) for left and right anterior and posterior cingulate segmented are shown in Figure to right, where the profiles from each subject group are overlaid together. Note the separation between the subject groups in the posterior segments (bottom row), confirmed by statistical testing show in Table 2. For the cumulative distribution functions for both left and right posterior cingulate segments, MWW and T tests show that the CDR 0 group is stochastically greater than the CDR0.5 group, and KS tests show that the distributions of the two groups are separate with CDR 0 being to the right of the CDR 0.5 group.
