HUMAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is downloaded weekly from http://compbio.charite.de/hudson/job/hpo/lastStableBuild/artifact/ontology/release/hp.obo. The file downloaded is considered the "last stable build" available for the ontology. For more about the HPO, view their website at http://www.human-phenotype-ontology.org/.

Term:Abnormal cerebral white matter morphology
go back to main search page
Accession:HP:0002500 term browser browse the term
Definition:An abnormality of the cerebral white matter.
Comment:This finding can be demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging, especially with t2 signaling. The cerebral white matter is the region of the central nervous system that consists mostly of glial cells and myelinated axons that interconnect the various regions of the cerebrum and the lower brain centers. It is located in the subcortex.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: Abnormality of subcortical white matter;   Abnormality of the cerebral white matter;   Cerebral white matter abnormalities;   Leukoaraiosis;   White matter abnormalities;   White matter alterations
 related_synonym: Cortical white matter abnormalities seen on MRI
 alt_id: HP:0200100
 xref: UMLS:C0948163;   UMLS:C4020851
