Cerebellar parcellations in children with SBM showed an abnormal configuration of volume fractions in cerebellar regions important for rhythm function: a smaller inferior-posterior lobe, and larger anterior and superior-posterior lobes.en-USRhythmMetric structureMRICerebellumSpina bifida meningomyeloceleArticle
