coronal orientation perpendicular to the long axis of the hippocampus with a 1.5-mm slice thickness, which encompassed the entire brain hemisphere without gaps or wrap artifacts (FOV = 25 cm; NEX = 1; matrix = 256 × 192; TR = 35 ms; FA = 60º). All file names were assigned sequential code numbers, and demographic information was removed from image headers [9]. MRI scans were first screened in a diagnosis–blind manner, and the brains with abnormalities were re-evaluated by both radiologists and neuropathologists to determine the topography, type, and size of lesions detected with both methods
