Objective: Cerebellum plays quite important in our balance by coordinating the control and synergistic movements of the skeletal muscles. There are many studies in which the volume of the cerebellum is measured and different methods are used. Manual measurements are accepted as the gold standard in these studies, but these measurements are not commonly used due to time and difficulty. The present study aims to compare the cerebellum volume using three different methods. Materials and Methods:In this study, MR images of 18 men aged between 22 and 30 years were used in the Department of Radiology of Erciyes University Gevher Nesibe Hospital. In the total cerebellum volume measurements, sagittal images were calculated using the Manual (ImageJ), MRICloud and VolBrain (CERES) methods.Results: Manual and VolBrain measurements were performed to determine the volume of the cerebellum. The total volume of the cerebellum was 136.36±12.36 cm 3 in manual calculation 125.46±17.26 cm 3 in VolBrain and MRICloud1 46.81±20.16. Conclusion:In this study, it was seen that the three methods used to measure the volume of the cerebellum were compatible with each other. Because VolBrain volume values are close to the manual method, cerebellum volumes can be obtained by routinely using them.

Background: Thoracic scoliosis has been shown to be associated with hypokyphosis in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). However, the relationship of sagittal spino-pelvic parameters with different coronal curve patterns and their influence on patient-perceived quality of life is unknown. This study aims to determine the association between coronal and sagittal malalignment in patients with AIS and to determine their effects on SRS-22r scores. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 1054 consecutive patients with AIS. The coronal Cobb angle, thoracic kyphosis (TK), lumbar lordosis (LL), pelvic incidence (PI), PI-LL mismatch (PI-LL), pelvic tilt (PT), and sacral slope (SS) were measured on standing radiographs. The coronal Cobb angle (mild: 10-20°; moderate: >20-40°; severe: >40°) and PI (low: <35°; average: 35-50°; high: >50°) were divided into 3 sub-groups for comparison. Relationship between coronal curve magnitudes and sagittal parameters was studied as was their association with SRS-22r scores. Results: Low PI had smaller SS (30.1±8.3° vs 44.8±7.7°; p<0.001), PT (-0.3±8.1° vs 14.4±7.5°; p<0.001), and LL (42.0±13.2° vs 55.1±10.6°; p<0.001), negative PI-LL mismatch (-12.1±13.1° vs 4.1±10.5°; p<0.001) as compared to large PI. There were no significant relationships with PI and TK (p=0.905) or curve magnitude (p=0.431). No differences in sagittal parameters were observed for mild, moderate or severe coronal Cobb angles. SRS-22r scores only correlated with coronal Cobb angle and larger Cobb angles were negatively correlated with the function, appearance and pain domains. Conclusions: The sagittal profile for AIS is associated with the pelvic parameters especially PI but not with the coronal curve pattern. All patients have a similar TK regardless of coronal curve type. However, it appears that the coronal deformity is a greater influence on quality of life outcomes especially those >40°.

“…As reported by various authors, the reliability and success of caudal epidural anesthesia depend on the anatomical variations of the sacral hiatus [4][5][6]. Also the importance of the spine is great in analyzing posture [7]. This abnormality is clinically important for the CEB, which is usually performed in the diagnosis and treatment of lumbar spine disorders.…”

Introduction and purpose: The sacrum is an important bone structure involved in the field of fusion and stabilization in the treatment of sacral bone, lumbosacral and sacroiliac deformities or injuries. The aim of this study is to determine the mean index values of some parameters in the sacrum according to age and gender in certain age groups and to contribute to the literature. Materials and Methods: In this study, measurements were made using 3D CT images of the sacrum in patients who were admitted to Erciyes University Gevher Nesibe Hospital for various complaints and underwent lumbar CT. Totally, 166 men and 144 women aged 10-50 years were included in the study. The mean index values of the sacral length, sacral width, sacral angle, hiatal length, hiatal width and hiatal angle were determined. Angle measurements were performed using the ImageJ, a Java-based image processing program. Findings: When we compare the data in our study, we found a significant difference in the mean hiatal length between men and women (p < 0.05). The mean sacral length was 112.69 ± 16.61 mm in men and 105.58 ± 15.18 mm in women, respectively. Sacral width was found to be 109.93 ± 10.51 mm in men and 110.63 ± 10.48 mm in women. Conclusion: There was no significant difference in sacral length, sacral width, sacral angle, hiatal width, hiatal angle measurements in male and female and there was no significant difference between hiatal length.
