Abstract
Spin-lattice (T1) and spin-spin (T2) magnetic resonance relaxation times were examined in frontal, temporal, and striatal regions of 24 patients with schizophrenia and 10 normal comparison subjects. The schizophrenic patients had more prolonged T2 values than did the comparison subjects, particularly in the left temporal cortex and white matter, suggesting tissue pathology.
