Association between gray/white matter contrast and white matter microstructural alterations in medication-naïve obsessive–compulsive disorder

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2022
Intracortical myelin is involved in speeding and synchronizing neural activity of the cerebral cortex and has been found to be disrupted in various psychiatric disorders. However, its role in obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) has remained unknown.

Characterization of White Matter Hyperintensities in Large-Scale MRI-Studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Background: White matter hyperintensities of presumed vascular origin (WMH) are a common finding in elderly people and a growing social malady in the aging western societies. As a manifestation of cerebral small vessel disease, WMH are considered to be a

Crystallinity characterization of white matter in the human brain

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2021
Human brain tissue is a heterogeneous material, consisting of soft outer grey matter tethered internally by stiffer cords of white matter. These white matter tracts conduct electrical impulses between grey matter regions, thereby underpinning neuronal ...
