Download or read book Neuroimaging Biomarkers for Psychiatry written by Willem Bruin and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Diagnosis in psychiatry relies on the subjective assessment of symptoms, both reported by patients and observed by clinicians. This purely symptom-based classification has its limitations. Patients with the same diagnosis express different symptoms, and there is considerable overlap in symptoms across different mental disorders, leading to the possibility of over- or misdiagnosis. Moreover, these diagnoses tell us little about the individual patient, as treatment guidelines tend to follow a one-size-fits-all approach that may not be effective for every patient, resulting in delayed or ineffective treatment for some. To address these issues, there has been a shift towards more objective approaches to diagnosis and personalized treatment in psychiatry . An important means to this end is the search for objective biomarkers , which are measurable characteristics that indicate normal (neuro)biological processes or responses to therapeutic intervention. These biomarkers could help clinicians make more evidence-based decisions that are tailored to individual patients, potentially leading to more efficient and effective psychiatric care. The aim of this thesis was to investigate whether machine learning techniques could be used to find generalizable biomarkers for various psychiatric disorders. We used neuroimaging data to develop diagnostic biomarkers for OCD, (trans)diagnostic biomarkers for anxiety disorders in juveniles, and biomarkers predictive for ECT treatment outcome in patients with depression. This thesis showed that machine learning techniques can be applied to predict diagnosis and treatment outcome with variable success. Future studies should carefully consider sources of heterogeneity to facilitate the development of more accurate and clinically relevant biomarkers, ultimately improving psychiatric care."--

This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the state of the art in the use of neuroimaging technologies in the study of schizophrenia and other primary psychotic disorders. The contributions of neuroimaging in the characterization of these disorders are reviewed across diagnoses, by focusing on psychopathological domains and at-risk populations in order to understand the implications for treatment. The principal neuroimaging findings are described in detail, identifying those that are common to and specific for each disorder and highlighting important pitfalls. Attention is drawn to potential translational aspects of research in the field, with discussion of emerging innovative perspectives. Neuroimaging research has shown that abnormalities of brain structure and function associated with psychiatric disorders do not reflect the boundaries of current diagnostic categories. However, neuroimaging findings are being reconsidered in the light of recent research proposals aimed at re-conceptualizing classification systems in Psychiatry. Written by leading experts, this book will appeal to all with an interest in the field, including researchers, clinicians, and trainees.

Download or read book Identifying Neuroimaging Based Markers for Distinguishing Brain Disorders written by Yuhui Du and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2020-07-10 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been increasing interests in exploring biomarkers from brain images, aiming to have a better understanding and a more effective diagnosis of brain disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder, autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, Alzheimer’s disease and so on. Therefore, it is important to identify disease-specific changes for distinguishing healthy controls and patients with brain disorders as well as for differentiating patients with different disorders showing similar clinical symptoms. Biomarkers can be identified from different types of brain Imaging techniques including functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), structural MRI, positron emission tomography (PET), electroencephalography (EEG), and magnetoencephalography (MEG) by using statistical analysis methods. Furthermore, based on measures from brain imaging techniques, machine learning techniques can help to classify or predict disease for individual subjects. In fact, fusion of features from multiple modalities may benefit the understanding of disease mechanism and improve the classification performance. This Research Topic further explores the functional or structural alterations in brain disorders.
