Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This systematic review aggregates findings from 24 MRI studies to examine neural changes in PTSD patients following psychotherapy. The authors report limited evidence for increased medial prefrontal cortex activation or decreased amygdala activity after treatment, noting that the role of the amygdala in recovery remains unclear. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in the neurobiological mechanisms underlying therapeutic gains.
