Abstract
In this review work, the article will go through post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in detail. In the introduction section, the review will first introduce PTSD as a whole. The type of treatment will be stated in order of severity of symptoms. Then, one paragraph regarding the genetic heritability of PTSD is provided. The details of brain regions affected by PTSD and differences in symptoms will also be explained in this review. Using the information provided, the review will analyze why Neuromodulation is a promising treatment for PTSD. In the body section, the review will describe ten different neuromodulations that either have been implanted to treat PTSD or can be a treatment for the disorder. These ten methods include non-invasive and invasive techniques, as the two can be applied in different stages of this neurological disorder. Some neuromodulation is not yet used to treat PTSD, yet they have been proven helpful in other brain(psychiatric) disorders. In the discussion, the review will cover any neuromodulation methods that are not included and comment on those. In the end, the review will emphasize the need to find practical solutions to PTSD and the idea of pushing non-invasive neuromodulation (brain stimulation) into the future treatment of PTSD.
