    Abstract

    Brain imaging has given new insights into the structure and function of the brain in psychiatric illnesses. The conditions studied include Alzheimer's disease, Schizophrenia, depression and psychopathic disorders. Emerging technologies in the field of brain imaging have helped in the understanding of pathophysiology, aetiology, diagnosis, treatment response and prognosis of certain psychiatric disorders. This article summarizes the literature available and the potential clinical applications.
