Abnormal connectivity in schizophrenia revealed by multi-modal MRI

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Abnormal connectivity in schizophrenia was investigated by means of the structural MRI and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). In the analysis of gray matter using structural MRI, the association between cortical thickness and age in healthy people and schizophrenia was revealed. In the DTI analysis for white matter, normal cerebral white matter asymmetry was revealed to be reduced or exaggerated in schizophrenia. This abnormal asymmetry was also revealed to be the neural correlate of certain symptoms of schizophrenia.
