Study questions efficacy of CT, MRI for psychosis
By Wayne Forrest
Tuesday, December 2 | 11:30 a.m.-11:40 a.m. | SSG11-07 | Room N227Because neuroimaging of first-episode psychotic subjects appears to have "very little value" in diagnosing the cause of the psychosis, a head CT or MRI should not be given great consideration, researchers in Canada have concluded.
