[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the viability and significance of imaging measurement on the diffusion tensor tractography of white matter fibers.Materials and Methods: A study group of 50 patients suffering from schizophrenia, a control group of 50 healthy persons. Taking the above-mentioned 2 groups as subjects of study and making imaging tractography measurement on the diffusion tensor of the amount of white matter fibers among the two groups of people.Results: (1) No obvious significant difference statistically was found in contrasting the age and gender of the two groups of people. (2) The differences were significant statistically (P<0.05) when comparing comparison between the two groups in terms of distribution differences between left and right parts of the brain. Tests on the study group showed that subjects in this group register lower volume in such aspects as bilateral temporal gyros, bilateral middle and outer bag hook back around bilateral hippocampal FA difference than the control group. The bigger the difference is the more statistical value the study shows.Conclusions: In measuring the FA value of white matter in the study group using diffusion tensor imaging, the researchers made symmetrical measurements on the clearest parts of the two levels of successive adjacent parts. When the FA value of white matter shown in the diffusion tensor tractography is found to be abnormal, bilateral FA value can be measured, the difference between the right side FA value and the left side FA value can be used in carrying out clinical analysis on microscopic structure chang of white matter.
