<p>Classifier accuracy as the proportion of patients correctly classified as<br /><br>responder (sensitivity) and non-responder (specificity), differences in the<br /><br>proportion of responders between the randomized (first) and fMRI biomarker<br /><br>allocated (second) cohort, independent network components using resting-state<br /><br>fMRI, structural connectivity using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), task<br /><br>related activity and connectivity using event-related fMRI, brain volume using<br /><br>structural MRI and cerebral bloodflow using Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL).</p><br>
