Type 1 diabetes is a chronic disease characterized as insulin deficiency and the resultant metabolic disturbances.It often accompanied with many complications, including diabetic encephalopathy.In this study, we measured volumetric changes in the brain of STZ-induced diabetic rats at 12 and 20 weeks using VBM. Progressive atrophy of STZ-induced diabetic brain was assessed.
