Neuroimaging Studies of Normal Brain Development and Their Relevance for Understanding Childhood Neuropsychiatric Disorders
Marsh, Rachel; Gerber, Andrew J.; Peterson, Bradley S.
Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, v47 n11 p1233 Nov 2008
Neuroimaging findings which identify normal brain development trajectories are presented. Results show that early brain development begins with the neural tube formation and ends with myelintation. How disturbances in brain development patterns are related to childhood psychiatric disorders is examined.
