- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The primary endpoint is the correlation between neurocognitive function and DTI<br /><br>abnormalities seen on MRI, expressed in fractional anisotropy (FA). Both will<br /><br>be analyzed as a continuous variable. DTI parameters and cognition will also be<br /><br>related to other MRI parameters.</p><br>
