The potential role of the parietal lobe in schizophrenia

Abstract Although the anatomy of the parietal lobe has been under-investigated in schizophrenia, some magnetic resonance imaging studies have shown decreased volumes, suggesting its possible implication for the pathophysiology of the disease.
