Cortical morphometric alterations and disrupted structural covariance networks in Somatic Symptom Disorder

Key Points

• Cortical morphometric alterations are associated with disrupted structural covariance networks.
• Participants with somatic symptom disorder showed significant changes in brain structure compared to controls.
• Neuroimaging techniques were used to assess changes in cortical morphometry and network structures.
• Highlights the need for further exploration of brain changes to better understand somatic symptom disorder.
