Purpose To investigate the changes of brain white matter microstructure in methamphetamine (MA) after a long-term withdrawal. Materials and Methods The whole-brain diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) scan was conducted to 29 patients with long-term MA withdrawal and 31 normal controls. Spatial statistics based on tract based spatial statistics (TBSS) was adopted, differences between fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD) values in different brain regions were compared, moreover, correlation between FA and MD values from the abnormal brain and cognitive function measurement was analyze...
