Volume 6: Novel Approaches to the Diagnosis and Treatment of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Abstract

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a frequent and debilitating consequence of exposure to war and other life-threatening events. PTSD often goes undiagnosed and even when it is diagnosed; treatment is all too often inadequate or ineffective. It is imperative to identify more effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. We discuss currently available screening and treatment measures, and present approaches we are planning to try to improve each of these modalities.
