the white matter is as a white as the name would imply. The boundaries where the gray matter and the white matter come together are known as the “gray matter/white matter interface.” In such areas, there is a significant difference in the density of brain material, which makes them cons...
Phenylketonuria, Brain, White matter, Gray matter, Developmental trajectories, Executive abilitiesPhenylketonuria (PKU) is a recessive disorder characterized by disruption in the metabolism of the amino acid phenylalanine (Phe). Prior research indicates that individuals with PKU have substantial white matter...
The team created very high resolution maps of the white-grey matter border across the entire living brain. Credit: MPI CBS Traditionally, neuroscience regards the brain as being made up of two basic tissue types. Billions of neurons make up the gray matter, forming a thin layer on the brain...

Gray matterWhite matterBrain MRI segmentationThis paper mainly focuses on characterization of different brain tissues such as White and Gray matter (WM and GM) using the relation between Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging parameters. Both Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Diffusion ...

More than 30 years ago, my colleagues and I described this syndrome aswhite matter dementia. In this condition, the dysfunctional white matter is no longer adequately performing as a connector, meaning that the gray matter cannot act together in a seamless and synchronous manner. The brain, in...

（ The brain consists of gray and white matter. The brain weighs just over a kilo. The brain contains about 100 billion cells. The brain uses 20% of the body's energy. The brain sends messages in the same way as a computer works. There are more possible connections in your...
White matter is brain tissue that is located below the surface gray matter. It is composed of nerve fibers that connect the different areas of the brain.
