DTI data were acquired from 96 consecutive typically developing children, aged 0–14 years. AF subcomponents, including the posterior, anterior, and direct AF tracts were analyzed. Success rates of analysis（AR） and fractional anisotropy（FA） values of each subcomponent tract were measured and compared. AR of all subcomponent tracts, except the posterior, showed a significant increase with aging（P 〈 0.05）. Subcomponent tracts had a specific developmental sequence： First, the posterior AF tract, second, the anterior AF tract, and last, the direct AF tract in identical hemispheres. FA values of all subcomponent tracts, except right direct AF tract, showed correlation with subject＇s age（P 〈 0.05）. Increased AR and FA values were observed in female subjects in young age（0–2 years） group compared with males（P 〈 0.05）. The direct AF tract showed leftward hemispheric asymmetry and this tendency showed greater consolidation in older age（3–14 years） groups（P 〈 0.05）. These findings demonstrated the radiologic developmental patterns of the AF from infancy to adolescence using subcomponent DTI analysis. The AF showed a specific developmental sequence, sex difference in younger age, and hemispheric asymmetry in older age.展开更多
