Mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder are common mental illnesses, affecting millions of patients worldwide. The application of newly available brain imaging methods to the study of mood disorders holds substantial promise in uncovering the brain mechanisms affected in these illnesses. This comprehensive and authoritative text features contributions from leading international experts, providing easily accessible information on the study of the brain mechanisms involved in the causation of mood disorders and the available treatments. Topics covered include the potential of magnetoencephalography (MEG), neuroimaging brain inflammation in depression, electrophysiology studies in mood disorders, and the applications of machine learning, filling an important gap in available neuropsychiatric literature and highlighting new developments. An invaluable resource for practitioners in the fields of psychiatry, neurology, primary care medicine, and related mental health professions, as well as researchers, students, graduate and post-graduate trainees.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'Though some chapters are highly technical, the majority can be consumed by an audience with experience reading peer-reviewed biology or psychology journal articles. The book is therefore appropriate for clinicians, researchers, professionals in the health care industry, and students at the graduate and upper undergraduate levels who are interested in mental health ... Recommended.' K. Feigenson, CHOICE
