Overview
The diagnosis of ADHD is mostly clinical, based on a thorough history and physical exam. Imaging studies should not be routinely done, but rather be guided by pertinent findings in the history and physical exam.[1]
Imaging Findings
MRI
High resolution MRI in ADHD shows:
- Decreased overall brain volume
- Decreased gray matter volume
- Decreased cortical thickness
- Increased white matter volume
These effects are most pronounced in the areas of the prefrontal cortex, caudate and cerebellum.[2][3][4]
SPECT
- SPECT scans in patients with ADHD may reveal orbito-frontal and cerebellar hypoperfusion.[5]
PET
