T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (TR 3200 ms, TE 409 ms) was used to evaluate 113 Mensa participants and 96 age-matched controls aged 21–40 years. Results indicate significantly larger corpus callosum length, isthmus thickness, frontal-to-occipital brain dimension, and cross-sectional area in the Mensa group.

Mensa International, which is the world’s largest and oldest highintelligence quotient (IQ) society.  \nMethods: We performed T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (Repetition Time, TR = 3200 ms, Time of Echo, TE = 409 ms) to examine the brain of members of Mensa International (Polish national group) in order to assess the size of the corpus callosum. Results from 113 male MENSA members and 96 controls in the age range of 21–40 years were analyzed.  \nResults: The comparative analysis showed that the mean length of the corpus callosum and the thickness of the isthmus were significantly greater in the Mensa members compared to the control groups. A statistically significant difference was also identified in the largest linear dimension of the brain from the frontal lobe to the occipital lobe. The mean corpus callosum cross-sectional area and its ratio to the brain area were significantly greater in the Mensa members.  \nConclusions: The results show that the dimensions (linear measures and midsagittal cross-sectional surface area) of the corpus callosum were significantly greater in the group of Mensa members than in the controls.  \nKeywords  \nBrain · Isthmus thickness · Intelligence factors · Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) · Morphological measurements  \nIntroduction  \nIntelligence is a broad and widely disputed concept in psychology used with reference to an individual’s capacities for cognitive performance. According toa definition generally accepted by researchers,“intelligence is avery general mental capability that, among other things, involves the ability to reason, plan, solve prob-  \nlems, think abstractly, comprehend complex ideas, learn quickly and learn from experience. It is not merely book learning, a narrow academic skill, or test-taking smarts. Rather it reflects a broader and deeper capability for comprehending our surroundings—‘catching on,’ ‘making sense’ of things, or ‘figuring out’ what to do” [1] . Individuals vary in terms of the capacities referred to as intelligence,  \nDie Radiologie 1  \nFig. 1 8Measurement of a corpus callosum dimensions and b corpus callosum and brain areas.(symbols explained in the text).AB The largest linear dimension of the brain from the frontal lobe to the occipital lobe, CD callosal sectional length, EF cross-sectional thickness of the CC in the narrowest location—isthmus, AREA1 midsagittal callosal cross-sectional area, AREA2 midsagittal brain crosssectional area  \nwhich is why tests have been devised to assess these capabilities [2] . A precursor to the currently used tools, a test designed to assess general intellectual capacities of childrenwas published in1905byAlfred Binet and Théodore Simon.
