Schizophrenia is a complex mental illness, including the
disorganize of thinking, behavior, and cognition. Recent
study showed that functional abnormality of thalamus
could be one of the underlying mechanisms in
schizophrenia, and such conjecture can be further
investigated using the resting-state fMRI technique. In
this project, we examined the spectral distributions in
the resting-state fMRI signals and conducted the
comparison between schizophrenia patients and normal
control. We discovered that spectral specificity
exhibited in low-frequency oscillations of thalamus
between the two groups, providing further evidence to
study the functional alterations in schizophrenia.
