From: Connectivity alterations of mesostriatal pathways in first episode psychosis
A First fMRI connectivity analysis with striatal seeds. In the second connectivity analysis (not shown), the midbrain regions differing between groups were used as a new seed region. B The functional connectivity results generated by our seed-based approach were analysed by group level comparisons between FEP patients and healthy controls. C Functional connectivity measurements of FEP patients (FC eigenvalues) were correlated with antipsychotic drug dose equivalents and the severity of positive or negative symptoms composite scores at baseline and follow-up.
