Previous studies found structural brain differences between musicians
and non-musicians. In order to determine possible differences in
white matter architecture, diffusion tensor imaging was performed
on five adult subjects with musical training since early childhood,
and seven adult controls. The musicians displayed significantly greater
fractional anisotropy (FA) in the genu of the corpus callosum, while
significantly less FA was found in the corona radiata and the internal
capsule bilaterally. Further areas also showed significant differences.
We hypothesize that these changes are due to the cognitive and motor
effects, respectively, of musical training.
