Suicide remains a leading cause of adolescent morbidity and mortality. Despite identification of risk factors and protective factors for suicidal behavior, we have limited understanding of the mechanisms underlying risk for suicide attempt. Adolescence is a time of high risk for suicidal behavior, as well as a time that intervention and treatment may have the greatest impact because of structural brain changes and significant psychosocial development during this period. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have promise to yield markers of risk for suicidal behavior in adolescents because they can help identify neurobiological underpinnings of pathophysiologic mechanisms that are not observable at the behavioral level, and can also provide targets for future neurobiological interventions. Markers of risk for suicidal behavior are beginning to be elucidated, but as yet have not been applied to the clinical management of adolescents at risk for suicide.
