O6.4. auditory and language areas distinguish converters from non –converters at baseline in sharp clinical high-risk subjects for psychosis study

DiscussionThese results indicate that specific CT abnormalities in circumscribed areas of the frontal and temporal lobes at baseline distinguish between CHR individuals who convert to psychosis versus those who do not at one-year follow-up. The brain regions involved belong to language circuits and their CT abnormalities correlate with verbal learning suggesting that these brain circuits are among the first affected by processes leading to frank psychosis.
