Neuropsychiatric MRI brain signatures fail reproducibility test
thetransmitter.org
A new study analyzing thousands of MRI scans reveals that individual structural brain measures fail to produce reproducible anatomical signatures for neuropsychiatric conditions like autism, schizophrenia, and depression. These findings challenge the longstanding assumption that increased research volume will eventually reveal consistent brain changes for these disorders. Consequently, the results suggest that current structural MRI approaches are unlikely to yield reliable biomarkers for diagnosing such conditions.
