Background: Although structural and functional abnormalities have been found in patients with schizophrenia, very few studies have investigated neuroimaging features in delusional disorder patients. We conducted a review of the literature to assess the evidence for specific neuroimaging changes in delusional disorder on brain structures and

متن کاملDelusions and the role of beliefs in perceptual inference.
Delusions are unfounded yet tenacious beliefs and a symptom of psychotic disorder. Varying degrees of delusional ideation are also found in the healthy population. Here, we empirically validated a neurocognitive model that explains both the formation and the persistence of delusional beliefs in terms of altered perceptual inference. In a combined behavioral and functional neuroimaging study in ...
