5. Study Description

Brief Summary
In this study, diffusion tensor imaging(DTI)technique was used to evaluate the brain microstructures and connective white matter microstructures in patients with refractory FD, resting fMRI was used to evaluate the functional connectivity between hemispheres, and neuroimaging changes after antidepressant intervention were observed to explore the activation patterns of resting brain homeostasis-receptive network areas in patients with refractory FD. We aimed to explore microstructure of white matter and gray matter and functional connectivity between hemispheres to explain the therapeutic mechanism of antidepressants.
Detailed Description
In this study, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to investigate the abnormal activation patterns of brain regions in patients with refractory FD in resting state, and to observe the changes of brain functions after antidepressant treatment, in order to find scientific evidence for exploring the etiology, neuropathological mechanism and the mechanism of antidepressant treatment of refractory FD.
