Clinical Utility of Psychiatric Neuroimaging: Exploring Psychoradiology and Use of Machine Learning in Psychoradiology
Dr Ishaan Bakshi
Abstract: Psychoradiology, an emerging discipline, applies advanced radiological imaging technologies to psychiatric disorders. Over the past thirty years, progress in brain imaging has significantly enhanced our understanding of psychiatric illnesses and treatment outcomes [1]. Radiologists have shown growing interest in utilising these advancements for accurate diagnosis and personalised patient care in common psychiatric conditions. This shift from research to clinical application marks the initial phase of psychoradiology's evolution [1]. This review outlines recent developments in the field, focusing on its clinical roles. The review also offers practical guidelines for implementing psychoradiology in clinical settings and suggests areas for future research to validate its broader clinical applications. Given the prevalence of psychiatric disorders and the increasing involvement of radiologists in this area, this guide aims to assist radiologists in contributing effectively to this rapidly advancing field.
