The Hippocampus in Depression: More than the sum of its parts? Advanced Hippocampal Substructure Segmentation in Depression

Hippocampal volume reduction is the most replicated finding in neuroimaging studies of major depressive disorder (MDD). Varying hippocampal volume definition is a well-established problem in this field and given that hippocampal function can be mapped onto anatomically defined substructures, and detailed examination of substructure volumes is now possible, we examined different hippocampal composite measures in MDD to look for hippocampal markers of MDD.
