English: f0005: Cortical abnormalities in rolandic epilepsy.Inflated brain visualizations of the regions showing abnormal cortical morphology in RE. Subfigures A–D display reduced cortical thickness in RE (age and gender corrected), subfigures E–H depict regions showing cortical thinning for increasing age, an effect which was only found in the patients (gender corrected). Reduced cortical thickness was found predominantly in the supramarginal gyrus and partly covered the bank of the superior temporal sulcus, the superior temporal gyrus and the lower postcentral gyrus (A). Cortical thinning with age was predominantly found in the left hemisphere and involved the inferior frontal gyrus, the inferior postcentral and the supramarginal gyrus and the middle temporal gyri at the lateral side (E), and the cuneus, precuneus and cingulate cortex medially (G).
