Within the scope of this work comprehensive studies on the spatially resolved detection of the trace element lithium in human brain tissue have been performed. The focus of these studies was the correlation between spatial lithium distribution and psychological condition. Regarding this, significant differences have been found on microscopic as well as on macroscopic scale. By numerous measurements the rostal part of the corpus callosum has been investigated. It is assumed that the cause of some kind of depression can be found in this functional area of the brain.
