Abstract:
Anxiety disorders are common mental disorders often accompanied by varying degrees of dysfunction. However, its causes and related pathological mechanisms are still unclear. In recent years, many studies have found abnormalities in the cerebellar structure and function of patients with anxiety disorders, with significant heterogeneity observed among different subtypes of anxiety disorders. This article reviews the studies on cerebellar imaging features in patients with different subtypes of anxiety disorders, exploring potential research directions on the pathogenesis of anxiety disorders from both structural and functional perspectives.
