Brain differences between musicians and non-musicians
have been found mainly in the primary auditory and motor cortex of
the right hemisphere, as well as in their connections. Some previous
investigations attempting to describe the peculiarities of the
musician’s brain have focused in the Corpus callosum (CC), being the
common result of most of these investigations a larger anterior CC
and overall thicker CC in the musician’s brain. However, differences
have also been found in the way their brains work, showing that
musicians have less inter-hemispherical functional connectivity
between the primary motor cortices associated to the movement of
the upper limbs. Thus, the aim of our study was to investigate
whether structural connectivity between these regions is also
different in musicians by measuring white matter (WM) tracts using
Diffusion MRI in a left-handed sample of 29 musicians and 43 nonmusicians. As expected, it was found that musicians present lower FA
than non-musicians in the callosal tracts connecting the upper limbs'
primary motor cortices, suggesting more independence between
both hands. [-]
