108. Lateral Ventricles Laterality Index is Associated With Myelin Content in Individuals With Bipolar and Depressive Disorders

Previous studies provided inconsistent information regarding lateral ventricle asymmetry and its relationship to other brain indices in individuals with mood disorders. No study so far investigated how lateral ventricular asymmetry is related to cortical myelin content. The goal of this study was to compare lateral ventricular asymmetry in individuals with bipolar (BD) and depressive (DD) disorders versus healthy controls (HC) and examine its association with cortical myelin.
