This study investigates how both structural and functional
connectivity (SC and FC) changes in the adult lifespan as well as to explore
the relationship between measures that are commonly used for SC and FC in the
context of normal aging. A multi-modal analysis using DTI and resting-state
fMRI data was performed from 183 healthy participants aged 18 – 87 years. We
found that fractional anisotropy (FA) and FC showed similar rate of change and
correlation strengths with age in the 7 resting-state networks explored.
However none of the SC measures showed significant correlations with FC
measure.
