A.埃克特等人，2005; Silani等人，2005年）。 具体目标： 本纵向研究采用VBM方法，在以往研究的基础上，进一步探讨了阅读的结构相关性 青少年阅读障碍的发展。 要了解卢卡斯中心正在进行的其他项目，请访问http://rsl.stanford.edu/ （卢卡斯年度报告和 ISMRM 2011摘要） .

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. Introduction: Dyslexia is a developmental condition that affects much as 17% of children (Shaywitz, 1994). In examining the neurobiology of dyslexia, voxel-based morphometry (VBM) studies have shown reduced gray matter density and volume in the left parieto-temporal and left occipito-temporal regions of dyslexic readers when compared to normal readers (Brown et al., 2001; M. A. Eckert et al., 2005; Silani et al., 2005). Specific Aims: Using VBM, this longitudinal study will extend upon previous studies by examining the structural correlates of reading development in adolescent dyslexic readers.
