Volumetric changes in the brain after stress exposure (a) and after recovery from stress (b). Upper panels represent changes in subcortical regions, whereas the lower panels represent volumetric variations in cortical regions. (a) The impact of stress in the structure of corticostriatal loop. The color changes illustrate variations in volumes of stressed subjects in contrast to controls. (b) The amount of recovery from the impact of stress in the structure of cortico-basal ganglia loop. The color changes illustrate variations in volumes in stressed subjects after recovery from stress.
