Here's the story of Grayson who contracted an extremely rare type of leukodystrophy that destroys white matter protecting nerve fibers in the brain.

According to researchers at University College London, tracking the changes to the brain's white matter using MRI scans can help spot the deadly virus.

At the age of 50, an overweight person is likely to have comparable white matter volume to a lean person aged 60 years, new research at the University of Cambridge suggests.

Female infants have larger volumes of grey matter around the temporal-parietal junction of the brain than males at the time of birth, a new study has found.

Smoking high-potency cannabis can damage a crucial part of the brain responsible for communication between the two brain hemispheres, researchers warn.

Unstable blood pressure may lead to white matter lesions in the brain that are associated with stroke and dementia.
