Psychiatry belongs to the category of cognitive neuroscience, with its development being greatly influenced by neuroscience. Currently, undergraduate teaching in psychiatry still adopts the teacher-centered indoctrination model, leading to ineffective integration of neuroimaging science into the teaching process. In order to improve the quality of psychiatric talent training, the talent training model needs to be adjusted. This article analyzes the current situation of psychiatric teaching, outlines neuroimaging science, summarizes the impact of neuroimaging science on psychiatric teaching, and analyzes the strategies for applying neuroimaging science in psychiatric teaching, with the hope to provide a guideline for relevant teachers.
