A member asked:
Will schizophrenia appear on an mri scan years before symptoms occur?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Based on the current status of MRI scans that are commercially available, there are no specific findings that are correlated with schizophrenia or predictive of schizophrenia. That being said, there is a tremendous amount of research being done with new MRI sequences to look for MRI markers for schizophrenia as well as other neurological disorders.
