AuntMinnieTV: DTI offers insight into ADHD

Diffusion tensor MRI can identify structural changes that occur in the brains of children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, according to research presented at the 2004 RSNA meeting in Chicago by Manzar Ashtari, Ph.D. of Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New Hyde Park, NY. In this AuntMinnieTV segment, we explore how DTI is opening a window into the neurological function of ADHD children, and how pharmaceutical treatment can help.
