INTRODUCTION: Outcome from psychotic disorders is heterogeneous with poor long-term clinical outcome associated with such markers as decreased internal capsule volume and increased ventricular volumes. No previous study has examined neuroimaging markers in relation to early remission.METHODS: This neuroimaging study included 68 previously untreated first episode of psychosis (FEP) patients, of whom 28 achieved remission and 40 did not after six months of treatment, and 42 healthy controls. Using voxel-based morphometry (VBM), we set out to determine if specific neural correlates could be identified in FEP patients not achieving remission in a specialized early-intervention service.RESULTS: Nonremitted patients had significant lower grey matter concentration (GMC) in the parahippocampal gyrus bilaterally compared to remitted patients. A classification model utilizing parahippocampal GMC correctly classified remission status 79% of the time and accounted for 56% of the variance. Moreover, GMC on the left (r=-0.35, p=0.004) and right (r=-0.47, p
