Abnormal Cortical Development after Premature Birth Shown by Altered Allometric Scaling of Brain Growth

BACKGROUND: We postulated that during ontogenesis cortical surface area and cerebral volume are related by a scaling law whose exponent gives a quantitative measure of cortical development. We used this approach to investigate the hypothesis that premature termination of the intrauterine environment...
