Makris N, Papadimitriou GM, Kaiser JR, Sorg S, Kennedy DN, Pandya DN Cereb. Cortex 2009 Apr;19(4):777-85 PMID: 18669591 Abstract Experimental and imaging studies in monkeys have outlined various long association fiber bundles within the temporoparietal region. In the present study the trajectory of the middle longitudinal fascicle (MdLF) has been… read more →

Pasternak O, Assaf Y, Intrator N, Sochen N Magn Reson Imaging 2008 Oct;26(8):1133-44 PMID: 18524529 Abstract Partial volume effects are often experienced in diffusion-weighted MRI of biologic tissue. This is when the signal attenuation reflects a mixture of diffusion processes, originating from different tissue compartments, residing in the same voxel.… read more →
Rosenberger G, Kubicki M, Nestor PG, Connor E, Bushell GB, Markant D, Niznikiewicz M, Westin CF, Kikinis R, J Saykin A, McCarley RW, Shenton ME Schizophr. Res. 2008 Jul;102(1-3):181-8 PMID: 18504117 Abstract OBJECTIVE: Impairment of white matter connecting frontal and temporal cortices has been reported in schizophrenia. Yet, not much… read more →
Napadow V, Dhond R, Conti G, Makris N, Brown EN, Barbieri R Neuroimage 2008 Aug;42(1):169-77 PMID: 18524629 Abstract The central autonomic network (CAN) has been described in animal models but has been difficult to elucidate in humans. Potential confounds include physiological noise artifacts affecting brainstem neuroimaging data, and difficulty in… read more →
Harris GJ, Jaffin SK, Hodge SM, Kennedy D, Caviness VS, Marinkovic K, Papadimitriou GM, Makris N, Oscar-Berman M Alcohol. Clin. Exp. Res. 2008 Jun;32(6):1001-13 PMID: 18422840 Abstract BACKGROUND: Alcoholism-related deficits in cognition and emotion point toward frontal and limbic dysfunction, particularly in the right hemisphere. Prefrontal and anterior cingulate cortices… read more →
Spencer KM, Salisbury DF, Shenton ME, McCarley RW Biol. Psychiatry 2008 Sep;64(5):369-75 PMID: 18400208 Abstract BACKGROUND: In chronic schizophrenia and chronic bipolar disorder, gamma band (30-100 Hz) auditory steady-state electroencephalogram responses (ASSRs) are reduced in power and phase locking, likely reflecting neural circuit dysfunction. Here we examined whether gamma ASSR… read more →
