Brain scan atlases chart age patterns in Chinese adults

Scans of 947 healthy Han Chinese adults aged 19–72 across 11 centers provided reference maps of brain measurements linked to age and sex.Scans of 947 healthy Han Chinese adults aged 19–72 across 11 centers provided reference maps of brain measurements linked to age and sex.
