Purpose: To assess focal cerebral perfusion in patients with refractory depressive disorder
(RDD), patients with nonrefractory depressive disorder (NDD), and healthy control subjects …

The aim of the present study was to compare patients displaying chronic and treatment-
resistant depression with healthy controls, using the resting-state perfusion with arterial spin …

Background: Abnormal regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and grey matter volume have
been frequently reported in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). However, it is …

Objective Although substantial literature has reported regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF)
abnormalities in adults with depression, these studies commonly necessitated the injection …

Background Most previous studies that examined regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF)
abnormalities in major depressive disorder (MDD) required the injection of radioisotopes …

Additionally, there were positive correlations between HRSD scores and rCBF in the left
anterior temporal (r= 0.71, p< 0.01), left dorsolateral prefrontal (r= 0.70, p< 0.01), right frontal …

BACKGROUND: Functional neuroimaging studies have consistently demonstrated
decreased regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) or metabolism in the frontal lobe, temporal …

BackgroundA limited number of studies have demonstrated changes in cerebral blood flow
(CBF) in older individuals with depression, but there are considerable inconsistencies …

Arterial spin labeling (ASL) magnetic resonance imaging analyses allow for the
quantification of altered cerebral blood flow, and provide a novel means of examining the …

Methods PubMed, ISI Web of Knowledge & Scopus were used to search the literature and
cross reference several neuropsychiatric disorders with a search term construct, including" …
