    Summary
    MRI-based markers can distinguish patients with schizophrenia from healthy controls. Koutsouleris et al. now report a diagnostic signature that distinguishes major depression/bipolar disorder from schizophrenia in 80%/74% of cases. Classification accuracy generalizes to early phases of psychosis, and is moderated by disease stage, age of onset and accelerated brain ageing
