   • 2022, American Psychiatric Association, DSM-5-TR: Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision, American Psychiatric Association, →ISBN, page 1463:

     Most individuals who previously would have been diagnosed with hypochondriasis in DSM-IV [1994] (preoccupation with having a serious disease based on the individual’s misinterpretation of bodily symptoms) are now classified as having somatic symptom disorder; however, in one-third of cases, the diagnosis of illness anxiety disorder applies instead.

使用する際の注意点

• Both hypochondriasis and hypochondria, which have often been used synonymously (depending on usage details), are no longer the name of a current medical diagnosis in the disease classification of the latest Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, where their referents now map to either of two newer diagnoses, depending on the details of the case: either somatic symptom disorder or illness anxiety disorder. In the ICD-11, however, hypochondriasis remains the name that maps to most or all of the referents.
