Measurements of the normal hemispheric sulci with computer tomography: a preliminary study on 44 adults.
44 normal adults were examined by computer tomography (CT) withe fine matrix EMI scanner. Measurements of the width of the hemispheric sulci were possible in all but one case. An average value of 3.4 mm was found, but no sexual difference or influence of age could be shown statistically. The necessity of larger investigations of the normal population is stressed.
