Here we use an automated, surface-based method for quantifying morphometric features related to epileptogenic cortical malformations to detect abnormal cortical thickness and blurred gray-white matter boundaries.
Common features of FCD include abnormal gyral and sulcal pattern, thickening of the cortical gray matter, blurring of the gray-white matter junction, abnormal neural and glia-derived cell types and high signal on T2 or FLAIR sequences [3], [4].
Let us face it, Romney is very, very slick at blurring differences no matter how critical, no matter how wide they really are.
The border between cortex and white matter was blurred.
The numbers dance and blur, but no matter how you count them, all point to electoral defeat.
Figure 1 shows the cortical thickness and gray-white matter blurring findings, in relation to the identified malformation, in Patient 3.
Since the present study did not correct for the known age-related changes in cortical thickness [25] and gray-white matter blurring [26], and used a control sample with a wider age distribution, age-corrections may have yielded more sensitive performance measures.
I can applaud its general look, but the details that made it matter have been blurred out of recognition.
With the Jokers, the boundary between detached observation and immersion in the subject matter became even more blurred.
The dividing lines between state security, national (military) defense, and criminal matters have long been blurred in Cuba.
