“…When discriminating BD patients from HCs, previous studies have shown medium to high levels of accuracy when a variety of features were used including voxel-based morphometry (Mwangi et al, 2016), cortical thickness and skewedness (Squarcina et al, 2019), and functional connectivity (Roberts et al, 2017;Wang et al, 2019). Moreover, as a review study (Claude et al, 2020), which added some more recent studies (Squarcina et al, 2019;Wang et al, 2019), demonstrated that more than half of the studies classifying BD and HC used structural MRI, and, furthermore, the number of studies that used functional MRI was greater than the ones using diffusion tensor images. In general, the classification performances of the studies using functional MRI outperformed those of studies using other modalities.…”
