Anxiety Mayo
When diagnosing an anxiety disorder, is the disorder visible when a brain scan is done?
This one is for depression

Is there anything like this for anxiety disorders? (e.g. GAD, panic disorder, PTSD, social anxiety disorder)
Actually I’m not faking an anxiety disorder. I’m doing a psychology final project on anxiety disorders and I couldn’t find any information on that part. Thank you very much. Rude.
Samantha, neuroimaging techniques reveal significant differences between the brain activities of people who are suffering from anxiety disorders and people who are not suffering from anxiety disorders.
A study involving people suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), social anxiety disorder, and specific phobias revealed greater activity in the amygdala and insula regions of the brain.
People suffering from PTSD also showed hypoactivation in the dorsal and rostral anterior cingulate cortices and the ventromedial prefrontal cortex.
Good luck with your psychology project!
