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 ...
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 ...
Stochastic tractography study of Inferior Frontal Gyrus anatomical connectivity in schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2011)
Background—Abnormalities within language-related anatomical structures have been associated with clinical symptoms and with language and memory deficits in schizophrenia. Recent studies suggest disruptions in functional ...
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 ...
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 ...
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. ...
Biomarkers for Identifying First-Episode Schizophrenia Patients Using Diffusion Weighted Imaging
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2010)
Recent advances in diffusion weighted MR imaging (dMRI) has made it a tool of choice for investigating white matter abnormalities of the brain and central nervous system. In this work, we design a system that detects ...
