PURPOSE: To identify biomarkers linking molecular mechanisms to macroscale brain changes in major depressive disorder (MDD) by integrating multimodal neuroimaging, transcriptomics, and machine learning.
BACKGROUND: Differentiating major depressive disorder (MDD) from bipolar disorder (BD) remains a significant clinical challenge, as both disorders exhibit overlapping symptoms but require distinct treatment approaches. Advances in voxel-based morphom...
BACKGROUND: Menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) is generally thought to be neuroprotective, yet results have been inconsistent. Here, we present a comprehensive study of MHT use and brain characteristics in females from the UK Biobank.
BACKGROUND: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a prevalent mental health condition with significant societal impact. Structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) and machine learning have shown promise in psychiatry, offering insights into brain abno...
PURPOSE: Conventional quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) methods rely on simplified physical models that assume isotropic and homogeneous tissue properties, leading to artifacts and inaccuracies in biological tissues. This study aims to develo...
Pediatric bipolar disorder (PBD) is a highly debilitating condition, characterized by alternating episodes of mania and depression, with intervening periods of remission. Limited information is available about the functional and structural abnormalit...
OBJECTIVE: Subjective tinnitus often coexists with hearing loss, and they share common pathophysiological mechanisms. This comorbidity induces whole-brain gray matter volume (GMV) alterations, manifesting as distributed structural changes in neural n...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Recent advances in deep learning have shown promising results in medical image analysis and segmentation. However, most brain MRI segmentation models are limited by the size of their data sets and/or the number of structures t...
PURPOSE: Dynamic glucose enhanced (DGE) MRI studies employ CEST or spin lock (CESL) to study glucose uptake. Currently, these methods are hampered by low effect size and sensitivity to motion. To overcome this, we propose to utilize exchange-based li...
PURPOSE: To develop a quantitative multislice chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) schedule optimization and pulse sequence that reduces the loss of sensitivity inherent to multislice sequences.
