Detection of cortical thickness correlates of cognitive performance: Reliability across MRI scan sessions, scanners, and field strengths (2008, methodology): “…been performed against manual measurements derived from both in vivo and post-mortem MRI brain scans (Rosas et al., 2002b; Kuperberg et al., 2003a; Salat et al., 2004), the reliability of measures of this fundamental morphometric property of the brain has received relatively little systematic…”
Dynapenia and aging: an update. (2012, background): “For example, there are an overwhelming number of morphometric changes in the motor cortex with advancing age, including a dramatic volumetric reduction in the premotor cortex neuron cell body size (66), significant cortical atrophy of areas near the primary motor cortex (67), and a reduction in the ”

Motor control and aging: links to age-related brain structural, functional, and biochemical effects. (2010, neutral): “Furthermore, Salat et al. (2004) noted that the greatest differences in cortical thickness between young and older adults are found in prefrontal regions.”
Unique developmental trajectories of cortical thickness and surface area (2014, neutral): “In contrast, thickness showed similar values in most regions over the whole age range, confirming previous findings (Nopoulos et al., 2000; Salat, 2004).”
Differential aging of the brain: patterns, cognitive correlates and modifiers. (2006, neutral): “Second, age composition of the samples varies and because some regional differences in cortical volume may follow a nonlinear trajectory, tilting the sample age distribution upwards (50% above age 65 in (Salat et al., 2004; Lamaı̂tre et al., 2005) may account for a pattern of results that differs fr”
Principles of experience-dependent neural plasticity: implications for rehabilitation after brain damage. (2008, background): “Normal aging is associated with widespread neuronal and synaptic atrophy (Salat et al., 2004) and physiological degradation (Pitcher, Ogston,&Miles, 2003).”
High consistency of regional cortical thinning in aging across multiple samples. (2009, methodology): “However, in contrast to most manual studies, several investigations using automated/semiautomated methods find that the occipital lobes are negatively affected by age (Sato et al. 2003; Salat et al. 2004; Taki et al. 2004; Abe et al. 2008; Kalpouzos et al. 2008).”
