Res. 2009 Mar;108(1-3):33-40 PMID: 19135872 Abstract BACKGROUND: Superior temporal gyrus (STG) volume reduction is one of the most consistent findings in schizophrenia. The goal of this study was to… read more →
Voineskos AN, O’Donnell LJ, Lobaugh NJ, Markant D, Ameis SH, Niethammer M, Mulsant BH, Pollock BG, Kennedy JL, Westin CF, Shenton ME Neuroimage 2009 Apr;45(2):370-6 PMID: 19159690 Abstract MR diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can measure and visualize organization of white matter fibre tracts in vivo. DTI is a relatively new… read more →
Mezer A, Yovel Y, Pasternak O, Gorfine T, Assaf Y Neuroimage 2009 May;45(4):1117-25 PMID: 19146962 Abstract Functional MRI (fMRI) has become one of the leading methods for brain mapping in neuroscience. Recent advances in fMRI analysis were used to define the default state of brain activity, functional connectivity and basal… read more →
Makris N, Pandya DN Brain Struct Funct 2009 Feb;213(3):343-58 PMID: 19104833 Abstract Experimental and imaging studies in monkeys have outlined various long association fiber pathways within the fronto-temporo-parietal region. In the present study, the trajectory of the extreme capsule (EmC) fibers has been delineated in five human subjects using DT-MRI… read more →
Fitzsimmons J, Kubicki M, Smith K, Bushell G, Estepar RS, Westin CF, Nestor PG, Niznikiewicz MA, Kikinis R, McCarley RW, Shenton ME Schizophr. Res. 2009 Jan;107(1):39-46 PMID: 19046624 Abstract BACKGROUND: White matter fiber tracts, especially those interconnecting the frontal and temporal lobes, are likely implicated in pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Very… read more →

Tanev KS, Yilma M Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2009 Apr;111(3):282-91 PMID: 18995952 Abstract Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disease caused by prions. Typically CJD presents with a triad of rapidly progressive dementia, abnormal movements (e.g., myoclonus) and electroencephalographic (EEG) changes. Recently, CJD has been subdivided into subtypes based… read more →
Makris N, Angelone L, Tulloch S, Sorg S, Kaiser J, Kennedy D, Bonmassar G Med Biol Eng Comput 2008 Dec;46(12):1239-51 PMID: 18985401 Abstract In this study, we present a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based, high-resolution, numerical model of the head of a healthy human subject. In order to formulate the model,… read more →
Xu V, Chan H, Lin AP, Sailasuta N, Valencerina S, Tran T, Hovener J, Ross BD Semin Neurol 2008 Sep;28(4):407-22 PMID: 18843570 Abstract One of the most prolific chemical and anatomical imaging techniques of recent decades, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), includes the ability to noninvasively assess neurochemical changes with magnetic… read more →
Kubicki M, Styner M, Bouix S, Gerig G, Markant D, Smith K, Kikinis R, McCarley RW, Shenton ME Schizophr. Res. 2008 Dec;106(2-3):125-31 PMID: 18829262 Abstract BACKGROUND: A reduction in interhemispheric connectivity is thought to contribute to the etiology of schizophrenia. Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) measures the diffusion of water and… read more →
