Auditory verbal hallucinations: imaging, analysis, and intervention

摘要

In this article, we will link neuroimaging, data analysis, and intervention methods in an important psychiatric condition: auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH). The clinical and phenomenological background as well as neurophysiological findings will be covered and discussed with respect to noninvasive brain stimulation. Additionally, methods of noninvasive brain stimulation will be presented as ways to intervene with AVH. Finally, preliminary conclusions and possible future perspectives will be proposed.
