Real-time fMRI neurofeedback training of the amygdala activity with simultaneous EEG in veterans with combat-related PTSD
NeuroImage: Clinical Apr 12, 2018
Zotev V, et al. - Authors examined the regulation of amygdala fMRI activity using neurofeedback (nf) in veterans with combat-related posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) by using 3 rtfMRI-nf training sessions and EEG recordings. A prominent connection was brought to light between the reduction in PTSD severity between the first and last rtfMRI-nf sessions with enhancement in functional connectivity between the left amygdala (LA) and the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). It was deduced that the rtfMRI-nf of the amygdala activity displayed the potential to correct the amygdala-prefrontal functional connectivity deficiencies specific to PTSD.
