Contributions to the development and validation of fMRI-based biomarkers for drug discovery in social anxiety disorder
Héctor Ortiz Valencia
Abstract:This document presents the theoretical background and experimental work made to develop and validate a set of experiments based on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). These experiments are aimed to demonstrate that fMRI can be a valuable tool to objectivize drug treatment response in Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) patients.
Functional MRI is a non-invasive imaging technique which provides localized indicators of brain activity. The analysis of fMRI data has recently facilitated neuroscience to m… Show more
