This research explores the neurobiology of emotional regulation using multimodal imaging techniques and its clinical implications for psychiatric disorders. Through a systematic literature review, we examine the key findings from neuroimaging studies investigating the neural circuits underlying emotional regulation across diverse populations and contexts. We discuss the consistent and divergent findings, methodological challenges, and therapeutic implications derived from these studies. Additionally, we identify gaps in the current literature and suggest future research directions, including the need for longitudinal studies, exploration of individual differences in emotional regulation, and integration of multimodal imaging with other methodologies. Furthermore, we discuss the methodological challenges and opportunities for advancing the field of multimodal imaging in studying emotional regulation, emphasizing the importance of continued interdisciplinary research. Overall, this research underscores the significance of understanding the neurobiology of emotional regulation and its clinical relevance for improving mental health outcomes and developing personalized interventions for individuals with psychiatric disorders.
