Localized abnormalities in the cingulum bundle in patients with schizophrenia: A Diffusion Tensor tractography study
(Elsevier, 2014)
The cingulum bundle (CB) connects gray matter structures of the limbic system and as such has been implicated in the etiology of schizophrenia. There is growing evidence to suggest that the CB is actually comprised of a ...
Fiber geometry in the corpus callosum in schizophrenia: Evidence for transcallosal misconnection
(Elsevier BV, 2011)
Background—Structural abnormalities in the callosal fibers connecting the heteromodal association areas of the prefrontal and temporoparietal cortices bilaterally have been suggested to play a role in the etiology of ...
Increased diffusivity in superior temporal gyrus in patients with schizophrenia: A Diffusion Tensor Imaging study
(Elsevier BV, 2009)
Background: Superior temporal gyrus (STG) volume reduction is one of the most consistent findings in schizophrenia. The goal of this study was to conduct the first diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) study to investigate altered ...
Fornix Integrity and Hippocampal Volume in Male Schizophrenic Patients
(Elsevier BV, 2006)
Background: The hippocampus has been shown to be abnormal in schizophrenia. The fornix is one of the main fiber tracts connecting the hippocampus with other brain regions. Few studies have evaluated the fornix in schizophrenia, ...
Anterior limb of the internal capsule in schizophrenia: a diffusion tensor tractography study
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2012)
Thalamo-cortical feedback loops play a key role in the processing and coordination of processing and integration of perceptual inputs and outputs, and disruption in this connection has long been hypothesized to contribute ...
Fronto–Temporal Disconnectivity in Schizotypal Personality Disorder: A Diffusion Tensor Imaging Study
(Elsevier BV, 2005)
Background: Using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), we previously reported abnormalities in two critical white matter tracts in schizophrenia, the uncinate fasciculus (UF) and the cingulum bundle (CB), both related to ...
White matter hemisphere asymmetries in healthy subjects and in schizophrenia: a diffusion tensor MRI study
(Elsevier BV, 2004)
Hemisphere asymmetry was explored in normal healthy subjects and in patients with schizophrenia using a novel voxel-based tensor analysis applied to fractional anisotropy (FA) of the diffusion tensor. Our voxel-based ...
Age-related deficits in fronto-temporal connections in schizophrenia: A diffusion tensor imaging study
(Elsevier BV, 2008-07)
Objective: Impairment of white matter connecting frontal and temporal cortices has been reported in schizophrenia. Yet, not much is known about the effects of age on fibers connecting these brain regions. Using diffusion ...
Corpus Callosum Abnormalities and Their Association with Psychotic Symptoms in Patients with Schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2010)
Background—Whilst the neuroanatomical underpinnings of the functional brain disconnectivity observed in patients with schizophrenia remain elusive, white matter fiber bundles of the brain are a likely candidate given that ...
