Abstract
Over the past two decades, there has been an emerging interest in the neurobiology of personality disorders. Specific neurocircuitry alterations have been identified as the biological underpinnings of the dimensional traits that underlie personality disorders. In this chapter we review the most significant neuroimaging findings using PET and SPECT in relation to personality disorders and dimensions.
