Abstract
⺠We investigated three groups of amphetamine and MDMA users. ⺠Data on cortical thickness, cortical volume and subcortical structures have been collected. ⺠Heavy users displayed cortical thinning and volume reduction in frontal and parietal regions. ⺠Drug naïve controls did not differ from low exposure users. ⺠Neuronal degeneration might be associated with the use of amphetamine derivates.
