Diffusion abnormalities in the corpus callosum in first episode schizophrenia: Associated with enlarged lateral ventricles and symptomatology
2019, Psychiatry ResearchCitation Excerpt :A reduction in the midsagittal area of the CC is a consistent finding in chronic schizophrenia (Woodruff et al., 1995; Arnone et al., 2008), and volume decrease in one or more of the CC subdivisions have also been reported (e.g., Rotarska-Jagiela et al., 2008; del Re et al., 2016a; Francis et al., 2011). In addition to volume abnormalities in CC, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) derived CC abnormalities have also been investigated in schizophrenia (e.g., Whitford et al., 2012; Kubicki and Shenton, 2015). DTI is a relatively new imaging technique that quantifies the direction of the movement of water molecules, which in the human brain is more restricted in white matter fibers compared to gray matter or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF; e.g., Basser et al., 1994).
