Study examines unimodal vs multimodal neuroimaging methods for classifying psychosis unimodal multimodal neuroimaging pyschosis
By Dr. Sanchari Sinha Dutta, Ph.D.Aug 14 2023Reviewed by Sophia Coveney In a systematic review and meta-analysis published in the journal Molecular Psychiatry, scientists have analyzed recent evidence on the usefulness of single and multimodal neuroimaging techniques in characterizing psychotic disorders.
T1-weighted imaging and diffusion tensor imaging are non-invasive neuroimaging methods to assess structural changes in the brain network. Resting-state functional connectivity is another non-invasive technique used for functional assessment of the brain network. The effectiveness of three neuroimaging methods including T1, DTI, and rs-FC in classifying schizophrenia spectrum disorders was evaluated in the meta-analysis. Studies with internal prediction and external prediction were analyzed separately.
A high level of heterogeneity was observed across the study findings. Specifically, reported effect sizes within each imaging group appeared asymmetric. This indicates the presence of systematic bias in previous reports of the classification of schizophrenia spectrum disorders. No significant impact of the statistical, methodological, and demographic information on schizophrenia spectrum disorder classification was observed in the analysis. The analysis of head motion, which is a major confounding factor in neuroimaging analyses, revealed no significant impact on classification performance.
