Abstract:
Mood disorders are a group of mental conditions characterized by significant and lasting mood or emotional changes, which seriously affect patients′ normal lives. However, the pathogenesis of mood disorders is still unclear, and the specific biological markers to assist the diagnosis are still not determined, and this affects the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. With the development of molecular imaging, positron emission tomography (PET) has been widely used in clinical research on mood disorders, which is helpful for their clinical diagnosis and treatment. This paper aims to review the research progress on PET imaging principles, the pathogenesis and treatment mechanism of mood disorders, and to summarize the application prospect of PET in mood disorders.
