Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Medical Imaging
  • Developmental Biology

Background:

  • Electroencephalographic (EEG) source reconstruction requires accurate head and brain anatomical models.
  • Existing adult templates are unsuitable for infant neuroimaging, hindering pediatric research.
  • A lack of standardized infant anatomical models limits the precision of EEG source localization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel series of 13 anatomical models for infants aged 0-24 months.
  • To provide essential tools for accurate electroencephalographic (EEG) source reconstruction in early development.
  • To facilitate advanced neuroimaging and functional connectivity studies in pediatric populations.

Main Methods:

  • Developed 13 anatomical models from averaged MRI data and boundary element method (BEM) segmentation.
  • Utilized the Infant FreeSurfer pipeline for estimating brain tissue surfaces (pia mater, gray/white matter).
  • Extracted and processed skin, outer, and inner skull surfaces using cube marching and mesh refinement techniques.

Main Results:

  • Successfully created 13 topologically corrected, watertight mesh models for infant head anatomy.
  • Demonstrated and validated source reconstruction using these templates with 100 high-density EEG recordings from 7-month-old infants.
  • Confirmed the utility of the new templates for precise electrophysiological brain activity localization in infants.

Conclusions:

  • The new series of infant anatomical models addresses a significant need in pediatric neuroimaging.
  • These templates are expected to advance EEG-based neuroimaging and functional connectivity research in healthy and clinical infant populations.
  • This work provides a foundational resource for future studies on infant brain development and disorders.
