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 ...
Uncinate fasciculus abnormalities in recent onset schizophrenia and affective psychosis: A diffusion tensor imaging study
(Elsevier BV, 2009)
Two of the most frequently investigated regions in diffusion tensor imaging studies in chronic schizophrenia are the uncinate fasciculus (UF) and cingulum bundle (CB). The purpose of the present study was to determine ...
Local white matter geometry from diffusion tensor gradients
(Elsevier BV, 2010)
We introduce a mathematical framework for computing geometrical properties of white matter fibres directly from diffusion tensor fields. The key idea is to isolate the portion of the gradient of the tensor field corresponding ...
Quantitative examination of a novel clustering method using magnetic resonance diffusion tensor tractography
(Elsevier BV, 2009)
MR diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can measure and visualize organization of white matter fibre tracts in vivo. DTI is a relatively new imaging technique, and new tools developed for quantifying fibre tracts require evaluation. ...
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 ...
The Application of DTI to Investigate White Matter Abnormalities in Schizophrenia
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2005)
Schizophrenia is a serious and disabling mental disorder that affects approximately 1% of the general population, with often devastating effects on the psychological and financial resources of the patient, family, and ...
A review of diffusion tensor imaging studies in schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2007)
Both post-mortem and neuroimaging studies have contributed significantly to what we know about the brain and schizophrenia. MRI studies of volumetric reduction in several brain regions in schizophrenia have confirmed early ...
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 ...
DTI and MTR abnormalities in schizophrenia: Analysis of white matter integrity
(Elsevier BV, 2005)
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies in schizophrenia demonstrate lower anisotropic diffusion within white matter due either to loss of coherence of white matter fiber tracts, to changes in the number and/or density of ...
