Anatomical connectivity of the visuospatial attentional network in schizophrenia: a DTI-based tractography study
Résumé
In healthy controls (HCs), the visuospatial attentional network consists of fronto-parietal bundles distributed across both hemispheres. The
anatomical organization of this network remains unexplored in patients with schizophrenia (SZPs). The aim of the present study was to determinate the white matter integrity (WM) and the volume of visuospatial attentional pathways in the right and left hemispheres (RH and LH), as well as their structural asymmetry in SZPs and HCs, using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)-based tractography. We hypothesized that SZPs would have WM pathway alterations and reduced rightward structural asymmetry.
