  • Title: Brain computerized tomography in subtypes of severe chronic schizophrenia.
    Author: Stahl SM, Jernigan T, Pfefferbaum A, Zatz L.
    Journal: Psychol Med; 1988 Feb; 18(1):73-7. PubMed ID: 3258997.
    Abstract:
    Computerized tomographic (CT) brain scans were obtained in severely ill, chronic schizophrenic patients hospitalized in a long-term in-patient facility of a Veterans Administration hospital, and compared to CT brain scans from an age, sex and education-matched normal control population. In contrast to results obtained in our previous studies with younger, less severely ill, chronic schizophrenic patients, the current study population exhibited significantly increased rankings of third ventricular size and of fronto-tempero-sylvian atrophy, compared to normal control subjects.
