ABSTRACT
Objective To examine white matter integrity in heroin-dependent patients and matched normal controls with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI).Methods The fractional anisotropy was compared between 15 heroin-dependent patients and 15 controls.Results We found the fractional anisotropy was significantly decreased in specific brain regions of the heroin-dependent patients (P < 0.001 uncorrected),including the frontal gyrus,the parietal lobule,the insula,and the corpus callosum.Conclusion The presence of microstructural abnormality is found in the white matter of several brain regions of heroin-dependent patients.
