pubmed:abstractText |
Intrusive recollections, one of the re-experiencing symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), frequently occur in cancer survivors rather than the full spectrum of the symptoms of PTSD. Functional neuroimaging studies of PTSD have revealed hyperresponsiveness to threat-related stimuli in the amygdala, but no volumetric studies have ever found alteration in the volume of the amygdala. The aim of the present study was to assess the possibility of structural alteration of the amygdala in cancer survivors with intrusive recollections.
