Figure 3. Brain Structure Measurements that Contributed to the Data-Driven Sub-classification of Migraine.
Measurements of brain cortical surface area, cortical thickness, and regional volumes significantly contributed to the automated sub-classification of brain MRIs. Seven factors contributed to the model including: 2 factors composed of a combination of 14 surface area measures; 3 factors composed of a combination of 20 cortical thickness measures; and 2 factors composed of a combination of 14 volume measures. “Loading” is a measurement of how much an individual brain structural feature contributed to the classification.
