Abstract

Using computed tomography, Ventricular Brain Ratio (VBR) was assessed in a sample of 42 depressive patients, 36 schizophrenic patients and 37 controls. The values of affective patients laid between, but did not differ significantly from those of schizophrenic patients on the one hand and controls on the other. The schizophrenic patients showed VBR increase when compared to controls. Possible implications of VBR measurement, in patients with affective illness are discussed.

摘要

使用计算机断层扫描技术，对42名抑郁症患者、36名精神分裂症患者和37名对照者进行了脑室脑比率（VBR）评估。情感障碍患者的VBR值介于精神分裂症患者和对照者之间，但与二者相比均无显著差异。与对照者相比，精神分裂症患者的VBR升高。本文讨论了VBR测量在情感障碍患者中的潜在意义。
