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 ...
Abnormalities of middle longitudinal fascicle and disorganization in patients with schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2013)
Introduction—The Middle Longitudinal Fascicle (MdLF) is a long association fiber connecting the superior temporal gyrus (STG) and temporal pole with the angular gyrus through the white matter of the STG, structures which ...
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 ...
Cerebral white matter abnormalities and their associations with negative but not positive symptoms of schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2014)
Although diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies have reported fractional anisotropy (FA) abnormalities in multiple white matter (WM) regions in schizophrenia, relationship between abnormal FA and negative symptoms has not ...
Predicting inter-hemispheric transfer time from the diffusion properties of the corpus callosum in healthy individuals and schizophrenia patients: A combined ERP and DTI study
(Elsevier BV, 2011)
Background—Several theories of schizophrenia have emphasized the role of aberrant neural timing in the etiology of the disease, possibly as a consequence of conduction delays caused by structural damage to the white-matter ...
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 ...
Gray matter volume reduction in rostral middle frontal gyrus in patients with chronic schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2010)
The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is a brain region that has figured prominently in studies of schizophrenia and working memory, yet the exact neuroanatomical localization of this brain region remains to be defined. ...
Comparing prefrontal gray and white matter contributions to intelligence and decision making in schizophrenia and healthy controls.
(American Psychological Association (APA), 2010)
We examined the relationship between neuropsychological performance and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the orbital frontal cortex (OFC) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of the cingulum bundle (CB) within groups of ...
