Abstract

Objective 3D texture features of corpus callosum in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) based on MR images were researched to early detect and screen patients with Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), and offer the optimal treatment time. Methods 3D texture analysis was performed on 18 MCI patients and 18 normal controls (NC). The 3D texture features extracted from gray level co-occurrence matrix and run length matrix were analyzed. The significant differences between the two groups were tested. Results The results showed that the texture features had significant differences (P<0.05) between MCI and NC except grey level nonuniformity that the difference was not significant (P>0.05) .Conclusion The microcosmic pathological changes in corpus callosum in MCI patients could be reflected by 3D texture features and may be helpful to AD early diagnosis and treatment.
