Description

The thick cable joining the brain's halves might thin out in children whose development lags. Manik Mahajan and co-authors measure that cable on MRI scans in a 2025 case-control study of seventy children aged two to six.

Half the children had developmental delay, most often in speech, and half were developing typically. Using a standard mapping scheme, the team measured each region of the corpus callosum. Every region ran thinner in the delayed group, with the largest gaps at the back section, front body, and front bend. Children whose delay centered on language showed matching thinning at both ends. The authors suggest callosal measures could support early assessment, alongside clinical testing.
