Campbell JS, MomayyezSiahkal P, Savadjiev P, Leppert IR, Siddiqi K, Pike GB Front Neurol 2014;5:216 PMID: 25389414 Abstract Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging fiber tractography is a powerful tool for investigating human white matter connectivity in vivo. However, it is prone to false positive and false negative results, making interpretation of… read more →
Mandl RC, Pasternak O, Cahn W, Kubicki M, Kahn RS, Shenton ME, Hulshoff Pol HE Schizophr. Res. 2015 Jan;161(1):126-32 PMID: 25454797 Abstract Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) has been extensively used to study the microarchitecture of white matter in schizophrenia. However, popular DWI-derived measures such as fractional anisotropy (FA) may be… read more →
Seidman LJ, Rosso IM, Thermenos HW, Makris N, Juelich R, Gabrieli JD, Faraone SV, Tsuang MT, Whitfield-Gabrieli S Schizophr. Res. 2014 Nov;159(2-3):426-34 PMID: 25308834 Abstract BACKGROUND: Clues to the etiology and pathophysiology of schizophrenia can be examined in their first-degree relatives because they are genetically related to an ill family… read more →
Whitford TJ, Kubicki M, Pelavin PE, Lucia D, Schneiderman JS, Pantelis C, McCarley RW, Shenton ME Schizophr. Res. 2015 Jan;161(1):36-41 PMID: 25311780 Abstract BACKGROUND: Delusions of control are among the most distinctive and characteristic symptoms of schizophrenia. Several theories have been proposed that implicate aberrant communication between spatially disparate brain… read more →
O’Donnell LJ, Pasternak O Schizophr. Res. 2015 Jan;161(1):133-41 PMID: 25278106 Abstract One key pitfall in diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) clinical neuroimaging research is the challenge of understanding and interpreting the results of a complex analysis pipeline. The sophisticated algorithms employed by the analysis software, combined with the relatively non-specific… read more →
Wigand M, Kubicki M, Clemm von Hohenberg C, Leicht G, Karch S, Eckbo R, Pelavin PE, Hawley K, Rujescu D, Bouix S, Shenton ME, Mulert C World J. Biol. Psychiatry 2015 Jan;16(1):31-44 PMID: 25224883 Abstract OBJECTIVES: The interhemispheric auditory pathway has been shown to play a crucial role in the… read more →

Pasternak O, Westin CF, Dahlben B, Bouix S, Kubicki M Schizophr. Res. 2015 Jan;161(1):113-8 PMID: 25126717 Abstract In a previous study we have demonstrated, using a novel diffusion MRI analysis called free-water imaging, that the early stages of schizophrenia are more likely associated with a neuroinflammatory response and less so… read more →
Kates WR, Olszewski AK, Gnirke MH, Kikinis Z, Nelson J, Antshel KM, Fremont W, Radoeva PD, Middleton FA, Shenton ME, Coman IL Schizophr. Res. 2015 Jan;161(1):76-84 PMID: 25066496 Abstract BACKGROUND: The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is regarded as an etiologically homogenous model for understanding neuroanatomic disruptions associated with a high… read more →
Maier-Hein KH, Westin CF, Shenton ME, Weiner MW, Raj A, Thomann P, Kikinis R, Stieltjes B, Pasternak O Alzheimers Dement 2015 May;11(5):485-493.e2 PMID: 25035154 Abstract BACKGROUND: Brain atrophy in subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) introduces partial volume effects, limiting the sensitivity of diffusion tensor imaging to white matter microstructural… read more →
