Abstract

Background: The volume of the central corpus callosum (CCC) is inversely correlated with that of bilateral lateral ventricles (LV) in first-episode schizophrenia (FESZ) (del Re, in press). Here, we determined corpus callosum (CC) diffusion measures (DTI) using 2-tensor tractography in FESZ and controls in order to investigate the relationship between diffusion in CCC and LV volume at baseline and 0.7 months later. Free-water correction was applied to account for the possible contribution of LV CSF to CC DTI measures.
