Objective Fractal dimensionality (FD) analysis provides a quantitative description of brain structural complexity. The application of FD analysis has provided evidence of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis- (ALS-) related white matter degeneration. This study is aimed at evaluating, for the first time, FD alterations in a gray matter in ALS and determining its association with clinical parameters. Materials and Methods. This study included 22 patients diagnosed with ALS and 20 healthy subjects who… Expand
