“…Important contributions to the study of neuropsychiatric disorders have been made with MR automated parcellation studies since their introduction, notably in Alzheimer disease (Desikan, et al 2009;Desikan, et al 2010;Oliveira, et al 2010;Scheinin, et al 2009;Westman, et al 2011), schizophrenia (Kikinis, et al 2010;Kuperberg, et al 2003;Nesvag, et al 2008;Voets, et al 2008), depression (Bergouignan, et al 2009;Dotson, et al 2009;Nifosi, et al 2010), Parkinson disease (Tinaz, et al 2010), ADHD (Almeida, et al 2010;Wolosin, et al 2007), autism (Ecker, et al 2010;Hadjikhani, et al 2006), and bipolar disorder (Nery, et al 2009). Continuing debate on the best methods for evaluating the relative reliability, sensitivity and validity of manual versus automated parcellations exists.…”
