概要 Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a globally prevalent psychiatric disorder that results from disruption of multiple neural circuits involved in emotional regulation. Although previous studies using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) found smaller values of fractional anisotropy (FA) in the white matter, predominantly in the frontal lobe, of patients with MDD, studies using diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) are scarce. Here, we used DKI whole-brain analysis with tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) to investigate the brain microstructural abnormalities in MDD. Twenty-six patients with MDD and 42 age- and sex-matched control subjects were enrolled. To investigate the microstructural pathology underlying the observations in DKI, a compartment model analysis was conducted focusing on the corpus callosum. In TBSS, the patients with MDD showed significantly smaller values of FA in the genu and frontal portion of the body of the corpus callosum. The patients also had smaller values of mean kurtosis (MK) and radial kurtosis (RK), but MK and RK abnormalities were distributed more widely compared with FA, predominantly in the frontal lobe but also in the parietal, occipital, and temporal lobes
