Early-onset (EOD) and late-onset depression (LOD) are associated with different neuropsychological syndromes and structural brain changes. In this article, neuroimaging studies examining structural brain changes in elderly depressed patients are reviewed. The presented findings support current assumptions that depression in the elderly generally is associated with volume reductions in brain structures, notably in the hippocampus and the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). Concerning structural cerebral differences between EOD and LOD, the review yielded conflicting resultsonly for OFC, but not for amygdala or hippocampus, pronounced effects in LOD than in EOD can be assumed.
