Decreased axial diffusivity within language connections: A possible biomarker of schizophrenia risk
(Elsevier BV, 2013)
Siblings of patients diagnosed with schizophrenia are at elevated risk for developing this disorder. The nature of such risk associated with brain abnormalities, and whether such abnormalities are similar to those observed ...
Alterations in brain structures underlying language function in young adults at high familial risk for schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2012)
Introduction—Neuroanatomical and cognitive alterations typical of schizophrenia (SZ) patients are observed to a lesser extent in their adolescent and adult first-degree relatives, likely reflecting neurodevelopmental ...
Statistical analysis of fiber bundles using multi-tensor tractography: application to first-episode schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2011)
This work proposes a new method to detect abnormalities in fiber bundles of first-episode (FE) schizophrenia patients. Existing methods have either examined a particular region of interest (ROI) or used voxel based morphometry ...
White matter tract abnormalities between rostral middle frontal gyrus, inferior frontal gyrus and striatum in first-episode schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2013)
Background—Previous studies have shown that frontostriatal networks, especially those involving dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (VLPFC) mediate cognitive functions some of which ...
Excessive Extracellular Volume Reveals a Neurodegenerative Pattern in Schizophrenia Onset
(Society for Neuroscience, 2012)
Diffusion MRI has been successful in identifying the existence of white matter abnormalities in schizophrenia in vivo. However, the role of these abnormalities in the etiology of schizophrenia is not well understood. ...
Extensive white matter abnormalities in patients with first-episode schizophrenia: A diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) study
(Elsevier BV, 2013)
Background—Previous voxelwise Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) investigations of white matter in first-episode schizophrenia (FESZ) have been limited to the analysis of Fractional Anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD), ...
Altered language network activity in young people at familial high-risk for schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2013)
Background—Abnormalities in language and language neural circuitry are observed in
schizophrenia (SZ). Similar, but less pronounced language deficits are also seen in young first degree relatives of people with SZ, who ...
