In a small study, researchers observed a possible link based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) between elevated dopamine function, cannabis use, and schizophrenia. It is known that cannabis use is linked to psychosis, and dopamine is linked to psychosis, but whether there is a dopamine link is unclear.
