| Abstract: | Density values of the corpus callosum and ventricular brain ratio (VBR) were obtained by coronal computerized tomography (CT) in 16 chronic schizophrenic patients and 16 normal controls. The corpus callosum of schizophrenic brains showed no apparent density loss which could indicate a dysfunctional brain. A significant ventricular dilatation was found in the patient group compared with age-matched controls. This finding was compatible with several former observations with transverse scanning. |
