Scientists scan brains to unlock why people see themselves differently
NCT ID NCT04373629
Summary
This study aims to understand why people with body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) see flaws in their appearance that others don't notice. Researchers will use brain scans and eye-tracking to study how 146 participants with BDD, mild symptoms, or no symptoms process images of their own faces. The goal is to learn how the brain's visual system works in BDD and if simple visual exercises can change these patterns, which could inform future treatments.
