Core Tip Recent studies highlight notable neurobiological abnormalities in individuals with depression, with white matter lesions being relatively common. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a non-invasive imaging method, clearly demonstrates the extent and distribution of such lesions. However, the causal relationship between depression and white matter lesions remains unclear, partly due to the complex interactions between depressive symptoms and cognitive impairment. This study quantified white matter volume changes using MRI and examined their correlation with cognitive impairment severity in major depressive disorder.
