Abstract:
Clinical high risk (CHR) is the prodrome stage of schizophrenia and the population with CHR show subtle clinical symptoms and abnormal brain structure and function. Specifically, the pathological changes in the brain were mainly manifested as reduced gray matter volume in the anterior cingulate gyrus and hippocampus, damaged white matter fibers in the corpus callosum, uncinate tract and arcuate tract, cerebellar atrophy, and abnormal resting-state brain network connection.This paper reviews the brain imaging features, their relationship with clinical symptoms, and their role in predicting clinical outcomes in individuals with CHR. In the future, we can combine artificial intelligence and neuroimaging techniques to find specific markers of brain structure and function in the CHR population to guide early clinical detection and intervention.
