Towards personalized precision functional mapping in infancy.

ABSTRACT: The precise network topology of functional brain systems is highly specific to individuals and undergoes dramatic changes during critical periods of development. Large amounts of high-quality resting state data are required to investigate these individual differences, but are difficult to obtain in early infancy. Using the template matching method, we generated a set of infant network templates to use as priors for individualized functional resting-state network mapping in two independent neonatal datasets with extended acquisition of resting-state functional MRI (fMRI) data. We show that template matching detects all major adult resting-state networks in individual infants and that the topology of these resting-state network maps is individual-specific. Interestingly, there was no plateau
