AI Article Synopsis

  • * Advancements in neuroimaging technologies allow for objective detection of brain damage due to alcohol, aiding in the diagnosis and treatment of AUD.
  • * The article reviews key noninvasive imaging methods, like MRI and EEG, along with brain stimulation techniques, while suggesting future research avenues in understanding alcohol dependence.

Article Abstract

Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a worldwide problem and the most common substance use disorder. Chronic alcohol consumption may have negative effects on the body, the mind, the family, and even society. With the progress of current neuroimaging methods, an increasing number of imaging techniques are being used to objectively detect brain impairment induced by alcoholism and serve a vital role in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment assessment of AUD. This article organizes and analyzes the research on alcohol dependence concerning the main noninvasive neuroimaging methods, structural magnetic resonance imaging, functional magnetic resonance imaging, and electroencephalography, as well as the most common noninvasive brain stimulation - transcranial magnetic stimulation, and intersperses the article with joint intra- and intergroup studies, providing an outlook on future research directions.
