How is the thalamus impacted by trauma? The thalamus is more than a relay - it is a key node in perceptual, cognitive, and affective processing circuits. We found that the limbic thalamus has lower volume in both PTSD and MDD, while the sensorimotor thalamus has lower volume in PTSD only /1
Volumetric Differences of Thalamic Nuclei are Associated with Post-Trauma Psychopathology
Previous investigations of whole thalamus and thalamic nuclei volumes in post-trauma
psychopathology have been sparse, limited in scope, and yielded inconsistent results.
To address this, volumetric e...
