AB When  used  in  the  appropriate  clinical  context,  neuroimaging  is  a  useful  tool  in  the  evaluation  of  patients  with  neuropsychiatric  disease  and  behavioral  neurologic  problems.  Although  primary  psychiatric  disorders  such  as  depression,  bipolar  disorder,  and  schizophrenia  do  not  have  specific  or  pathognomonic  diagnostic  imaging  findings,  neuroimaging  remains  helpful  in  evaluating  for  secondary  underlying  causes  of  psychiatric  symptoms.  These  underlying  causes  can  include  focal  lesions  such  as  tumors,  strokes,  or  demyelination.
