Abstract

<p indent="0mm">Psychoradiology is an emerging interdisciplinary field that uses various radiological imaging technologies to analyze normal and abnormal psychiatric conditions, neurophysiology, and mental health to guide the clinical diagnosis of neuropsychiatric disorders and assist in neuromodulation therapies. Psychoradiology can be employed for the early detection, diagnosis, and prevention of neuropsychiatric disorders and combined with neuromodulation techniques for brain function rehabilitation. Psychoradiology explores the brain anatomy and function using diverse radiological technologies to uncover neurobiological mechanisms underlying the occurrence and development of psychiatric illness, which provides a theoretical basis for the rehabilitation of neuropsychiatric disorders and objective auxiliary evaluation techniques for clinical diagnosis and treatment. This paper first introduces the theory of psychoradiology and then systematically reviews the current development and latest research progress on geriatric neurodegenerative diseases, mainly including Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease, in psychoradiology, and finally proposes our prospects for the development of psychoradiology research on geriatric neurodegenerative diseases.
