title: Fractal estimation of the senile brain atrophy.
abstract: The paper presents an attempt to fractal analysis of senile brain changes. The differences of atrophy velocity in the white and gray matter can be noticed via fractal dimension according to the described one layer approximate model. The young (34 years) and old (82 years) brains are examined and compared.
