Neural markers of remission in first-episode schizophrenia: A volumetric neuroimaging study of the hippocampus and amygdala
Schizophrenia Research, 07/28/2010

Bodnar M et al. – A smaller hippocampal tail volume may represent a neural marker in FES patients who do not achieve early remission after the first 6 months of treatment. The early identification of patients with poor outcome with respect to the hippocampus tail may encourage the search for new, more target–specific, medications in hope of improving outcome and moving us towards a better understanding of the pathophysiology of schizophrenia.
