Functional Neuromarkers for Psychiatry _explores recent advances in
neuroscience that have allowed scientists to discover functional
neuromarkers of psychiatric disorders. These neuromarkers include
brain activation patterns seen via fMRI, PET, qEEG, and ERPs. The book
examines these neuromarkers in detail—what to look for, how to use
them in clinical practice, and the promise they provide toward early
detection, prevention, and personalized treatment of mental disorders.
The neuromarkers identified in this book have a diagnostic sensitivity
and specificity higher than 80%. They are reliable, reproducible,
inexpensive to measure, noninvasive, and have been confirmed by at
least two independent studies. The book focuses primarily on the
analysis of EEG and ERPs. It elucidates the neuronal mechanisms that
generate EEG spontaneous rhythms and explores the functional meaning
of ERP components in cognitive tasks. The functional neuromarkers for
ADHD, schizophrenia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder are reviewed in
detail. The book highlights how to use these functional neuromarkers
for diagnosis, personalized neurotherapy, and monitoring treatment
results.
