  • Measure bilateral caudate and ventricle size three times and get an average size (1).


  • Expressed as a percentage of the ipsilateral/contralateral of ventricle dilation, caudate atrophy (3).

  • Measure bilateral hippocampus three times and get an average size (4).


  • Expressed as a percentage of the ipsilateral/contralateral of swelling or atrophy.

  • Measure the bilateral white matter and hemisphere and multiplying by the thickness (8 mm) of the sections.


  • Measure three times and get a mean value.
