Our findings are consistent with an overall hypothesis that depression, even in adolescence, involves a disconnection of prefrontal, striatal, and limbic emotional areas (16). Although this represents a good step toward understanding depression during this critical period, more research is needed to understand the factors that ultimately contribute to altered WM microstructure in order to develop potential interventions."}
