Article Synopsis
- * Results show pilots have increased white matter volume in the cuneus area and additional areas of gray matter, suggesting enhanced neural efficiency for flight-related tasks.
- * A positive correlation was found between flight experience and increased gray/white matter volume in specific brain regions, indicating that flight time may influence these structural changes.
Hemispheric Asymmetries of Cortical Thickness in Civil Aviation Pilots.

May 2019
Although several studies have shown that an individual's career influences the brain structure, no study has examined cortical asymmetry in civil aviation pilots. This study focused on hemispheric cortical asymmetries in Chinese civil aviation pilots. The MRI structural images of 1065 healthy captains of the Civil Aviation Administration of China were analyzed using a surface-based automated parcellation approach, and hemispheric asymmetries in the global and regional cortical thickness of their brains were examined.

Materials And Methods: We analyzed cerebral magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) images of 2,246 healthy subjects using typical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and MRA. 3D-time of flight (TOF) MRA method was applied to all subjects and the classification was therefore achieved according to the integrity level of COW and the developmental situation of vessels.
