Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 11
Abstract
The cerebellum is one of important structure that found in posterior cranial fossa. The current study focused on the impact of age and gender on cerebellum volume and vermeil area in Sudanese population 100 healthy Sudanese subjects were included, their age ranged between14 – 80 years old,41% of them were males and 59 % were females . All were scanned using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) after applying the standard cerebellum protocol. The study showed : the mean cerebellum volume was 190.6 ± 21.57 cm3with the maximum value was 193.2 cm 3 ±24.8 and was found in the ages between(14-30)years old .The minimum value was 186.5cm3 ±19.58 and was found in the ages between (47-63)years old . There is no significant relation between cerebellum volume and age where a significant relation was found with gender and at p=0.000 The vermian minimum area was 108.6±13.93cm2 in the ages between (31 – 46) years old and the maximum value was 121.5 cm2 ±17.14 in the ages between (64 - 80) years old .The area is greater in males than females with no significant relation found between vermian area , age and gender.
