Summary
This study aims to understand how very brief exposure to combat-related images affects brain activity and fear in U.S. combat veterans with PTSD. Participants will view both very brief and visible combat images during an fMRI scan and rate their fear, awareness, and tolerance. The results will be compared to healthy controls to identify differences in brain regions linked to fear and control.
