The neuroanatomy of autism
2022, The Neuroscience of AutismA voxel-wise assessment of growth differences in infants developing autism spectrum disorder
2021, NeuroImage: ClinicalCitation Excerpt :Several studies established replicable morphological differences in ASD. Some of the most consistent and prominent findings include larger head circumferences (Bailey et al., 1993; Davidovitch et al., 1996; Elder et al., 2008; Hazlett et al., 2005; Lainhart et al., 1997; Stevenson et al., 1997; Woodhouse et al., 1996) and brain volumes (Carper et al., 2002; Hazlett et al., 2005; Piven et al., 1996, 1995, 1992; Redcay and Courchesne, 2005; Sparks et al., 2002). A number of regions have been found to have differences in ASD, including the corpus callosum (Frazier et al., 2012; Hardan et al., 2009, 2000; Manes et al., 1999; Piven et al., 1997; Wolff et al., 2015), the amygdala and hippocampus (Aylward et al., 1999; Barnea-Goraly et al., 2014; Dager et al., 2007; Kim et al., 2010; Schumann et al., 2009; Sparks et al., 2002), and the cerebellum (Bauman and Kemper, 1985; Carper and Courchesne, 2000; D’Mello et al., 2015; Fatemi et al., 2012; Piven et al., 1992; Stoodley, 2014; Wang et al., 2014).
