N2  - Morphological measurement of corpus callosum (CC) in magnetic resonance imaging studies has an important value for clinical decision-making dur-ing the period of childhood. Although there is evi-dence for differences in brain morphology in terms of socioeconomic disparities, there is no research specifically on CC morphology from any low- and middle-income countries. This study aims to report structural measurements and area of CC of healthy children from Turkey, a middle-income country, and find out whether the CC morphology differs between male and female children in differ-ent age groups. Healthy children aged 6-18 years were recruited retrospectively and their CC antero-posterior (AP) length, genu, body and splenium width (GW, BW, SW) and CC midsagittal area were measured from magnetic resonance imaging studies. Independent sample t-test was used to compare CC measurements of the sex and age groups. Pearson correlation test was used to de-termine linear correlations between age and CC parameters. The sample consisted of 200 healthy children; at least 5 female and 5 male children for each age; 103 (51.5%) females, 97 (45.5%) males.
