ABSTRACT:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Enlargement of lateral ventricle\u00a0 is most striking feature after sixth decade\u00a0 of life. Regression of brain is normal ageing process. But there are marked individual\u00a0 variations in this process. Lateral ventricular contours are relatively constant, except for the occipital horns. Two major changes that may occur in elderly individual without neurologic deficits is enlargement of ventricles and cortical atrophy. This study is focusing\u00a0 on the changes in\u00a0 posterior horn of lateral ventricle in different age groups. Aim of this study is to statistically analyse the length of the posterior horn of lateral ventricle in human and to correlate the changes in relation to age and side. Method: <\/em>The CT images of 150 adult \u00a0individuals (age group 20-80yrs) was studied in both males and females. Length of posterior horn of lateral ventricle was measured using dicomworks software. Result: <\/em>Mean value of length of the posterior horn increases on both sides as the age increases. Values are larger in 61-80 years.\u00a0 In relation to the side, the length of posterior horn is greater on the left side as compared to the right side.<\/p>\n

Key words:<\/strong> CT Images, Lateral Ventricle, Cortical Atrophy, Posterior horn.<\/p>\n
