About this Research Topic
We are pleased to announce a Research Topic of Neuroimaging in Psychiatry 2023 on the topic of sleep disorders. The focus of the Research Topic will be on the application of neuroimaging techniques to advance our understanding of the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of sleep disorders.
Sleep disorders are a common and often debilitating condition affecting a significant portion of the population worldwide. Despite the prevalence of sleep disorders, the underlying neurobiological mechanisms of these disorders remain poorly understood. Recent advances in neuroimaging techniques, however, have provided new insights into the neural correlates of sleep disorders.
This Research Topic aims to highlight the latest findings in the field of neuroimaging and to explore their potential implications for the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders, and provide a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, and policy-makers interested in advancing our understanding of sleep disorders through the use of neuroimaging. We welcome Original Research articles, Review articles, and Perspectives on the following topics:
- Neuroimaging biomarkers for the diagnosis of sleep disorders
- Structural and functional alterations in the brain of patients with sleep disorders
- The role of neuroimaging in predicting treatment response for sleep disorders
- Novel neuroimaging techniques for studying sleep disorders, such as connectomics and deep learning
- The ethical implications of using neuroimaging in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders
All submitted articles will undergo a rigorous peer-review process to ensure the highest quality of the published work. We encourage submissions from researchers working in the fields of psychiatry, neuroscience, psychology, radiology, and related disciplines.
