Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand, with the use of functional magnetic resonance imaging, the neural correlates involved in appetite control and the mechanism of weight gain in patients with schizophrenia treated with atypical antipsychotics. We hypothesize that a difference in cerebral activations between weight gaining and non-weight gaining patients will be detected after four months of treatment with olanzapine.
