Abstract

Abnormalities in white matter (WM) brain regions are attributed as a possible biomarker for schizophrenia (SZ). Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is used to capture WM tracts. Psychometric tests that evaluate the severity of symptoms of SZ are clinically used in the diagnosis process. In this study we investigate the correlates of scalar DTI measures, such as fractional anisotropy, mean diffusivity, axial diffusivity, and radial diffusivity with behavioral test scores. The correlations were found by different schemes: mean correlation with WM atlas regions and multiple regression of DTI values with test scores. The corpus callosum, superior longitudinal fasciculus right and inferior longitudinal fasciculus left were found to be having high correlations with test scores.
