Use of T1‐weighted/T2‐weighted magnetic resonance ratio images to elucidate changes in the schizophrenic brain

Abstract

T1-weighted/T2-weighted ratio imaging increased the detectability of SZ pathological changes. Reduced SZ brain signal intensity is likely due to diminished myelin content; therefore, mapping myelin-related SZ brain changes using T1w/T2w ratio images may be useful for studies of SZ brain abnormalities.
