Poster summary
- In this study, we investigate the dynamic early developmental patterns of the thalamus, caudate, putamen, pallidum, hippocampus, and amygdala, by leveraging 513 high-resolution longitudinal MRI scans densely covering the first two postnatal years. By exploring the gross volumetric development and spatiotemporally-detailed surface areal expansion of each subcortical structure, our study reveals that (1) each subcortical structure (except for the amygdala with an approximately linear increase) exhibits a distinct rapid volumetric growth after birth, then its growth rate slows down starting from a structure-specific age; (2) males gradually exhibit larger relative volume than females in the thalamus, putamen, pallidum, and hippocampus after birth; (3) the areal expansion of each subcortical structure is unique with high spatiotemporal heterogeneities. This study greatly advances our understanding of the dynamic and heterogeneous longitudinal developmental patterns of the subcortical structures during infancy.
