Neurotransmitter visualization in schizophrenia
Background: Although the history, interview, and examination of the patient provide the foundation for the diagnosis of schizophrenia, nuclear neuroimaging investigations constitute promising tools to elucidate the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and other neuropsychiatric disorders. Imaging studies of neuroreceptors constitute research tools to investigate the role of dysfunction of the acety...
متن کاملStudies toward the subcortical pathogenesis of schizophrenia.
In addition to introducing the six articles joined by our thematic outlook, this article addresses the importance of subcortical structures as they may be related to information processing and the life experience of schizophrenic patients. This is a heuristic exercise aimed at bridging the conceptual gaps between clinical and research approaches to schizophrenia. A brief overview is then provid...
متن کاملSubcortical alignment precision in patients with schizophrenia.
Previous work has demonstrated less accurate alignment of cortical structures for patients with schizophrenia than for matched control subjects when using affine registration techniques. Such a mismatch presents a potential confound for functional neuroimaging studies conducting between-group comparisons. Critically, the same issues may be present for subcortical structures. However, to date no...

متن کاملSchizophrenia: A Disorder of Subcortical Adaptable Neural- Complexity Pacemaker
The most striking feature of schizophrenia is the heterogeneity of clinical manifestation and variety of cognitive disturbances. As evident from this clinical description schizophrenia is related to a widespread cortical whole-brain disturbance. It can be useful to describe schizophrenia as a disorder of neural complexity where a segregated brain organization causes fragmentation of experience ...
