Our purpose was to establish a template of upper cerebral anatomy suitable for analysis of infarct distribution and for comparison among infarct types. We made a standard diagram of the key gyri and sulci of the supraventricular and occipital regions, partitioned the gray matter and white matter into specific zones useful for analyzing infarcts by CT and MRI, and numbered each zone uniquely in to establish a template suitable for tabulating the precise regions affected by each infarct and for analyzing differences among infarcts. The template provides a method for extracting a standardized set of data from CT or MRI performed at any angle, reconfiguring those data into a standard image, and characterizing the specific portions of infarcted brain in terms of unique numbers suitable for tabulation, collation and comparison. Standardization of the format provides for later computer analysis of increasing numbers of diverse infarcts. This method may be extended to any other type of pathology, although successful analysis of different lesions may require partitioning the gray and white matter zones in different ways.
我们的目的是建立一个适合分析梗死灶分布以及比较不同梗死类型的大脑上部解剖模板。我们绘制了一张标准图表，展示了脑室上区和枕区的关键脑回和脑沟，将灰质和白质划分为特定区域，这些区域有助于通过CT和MRI分析梗死灶，并对每个区域进行唯一编号，以建立一个模板，用于将每个梗死灶所累及的精确区域制成表格，并分析不同梗死灶之间的差异。该模板提供了一种方法，可从以任何角度进行的CT或MRI中提取一组标准化数据，将这些数据重新配置为标准图像，并根据适合制表、整理和比较的唯一编号来描述梗死脑区的特定部分。格式的标准化便于日后对越来越多的不同梗死灶进行计算机分析。这种方法可扩展到任何其他类型的病理学研究，不过对不同病变的成功分析可能需要以不同方式划分灰质和白质区域。
