Complexity of prefrontal cortical dysfunction in schizophrenia: more than up or down.

TL;DR: Patients with schizophrenia whose performance on the N-back working memory task is similar to that of healthy comparison subjects use greater prefrontal resources but achieve lower accuracy and that other patients with schizophrenia fail to sustain the prefrontal network that processes the information, achieving even lower accuracy as a result.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive Approach for Correction of Motion and Distortion in Diffusion-Weighted MRI

TL;DR: Qualitative and quantitative results show that this approach produces a significant improvement of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data acquired in the human brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

The neurodevelopmental hypothesis of schizophrenia: Following a trail of evidence from cradle to grave

TL;DR: It is concluded that schizophrenia is certainly not a degenerative brain disorder, and it is likely that a brain insult in utero or at birth plays a role in its expression, and current evidence cannot completely exclude the role of environmental variables after birth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of image distortions originating from susceptibility variations and concomitant fields on diffusion MRI tractography results

TL;DR: The correction of EPI distortion using an image-based registration approach showed a significant improvement in tract consistency and accuracy and is recommended to be added to the diffusion MRI processing pipeline if the output is to be used for fiber tractography.
