Avatar n tn I saw a clip on the "meg scan" on the Today show. It said it was brand new brain scan that doctor's are using for people with epilepsy. They also mention briefly this technology could be used with kids with autism. I am wondering how this could be benefitial for kids with autism? Also, I wanted to know if there was a meg scan in the Los Angeles area? Any help would be appreciated.
1693254 tn?1306225514 Hi there. An infant with a big head or a rapid rate of growth of head circumference indicated hydrocephalus or water on brain, certain types of metabolic disorders, and mostly autistic spectrum disorder. While an infant having a big head is not a certain indicator of autism, it does appear to be an important signal of heightened risk for the disorder.
Avatar n tn Did they do MRI or Cat Scan as well? Get those tests as well, they all check the brain, MRI can show seizures I believe and Cat Scan is to show any damage or tumors in the brain.

Avatar f tn If you have a look at DSM IV code 299, this is the clinical diagnostic criteria for autism. That will give you a broad, basic understanding of what the professionals are looking for. Because it is a 'spectrum' disorder there is a huge range of how it affects any child from mild to severe.

Avatar m tn At this point of time he is not able to speak more than two words in a row. His Hb is 8.9. He is on valporate, topiramate and levetiracetam. His MRI scan revealed "Assymetric Right Temporal Horn prominence without any difinite evidence of mesial scerosis" His walking pattern is also erratic. Most often he adopts "Toe Walking". When he walks slowly, which is rare, he walks alright. Always he tries to rush up and runs in an imbalancing manner.

Avatar n tn They can however, detect mental illness such as scitzophreneia which i know because i was diagnosed through an MRI. The only mental illness an MRI scan able detect is an actually different brain connections than that of a normal brain. Ive had one done for mental illess! Can you describe some of your symptoms, what you feel and how often yolou feel it? I know your question is based on needing to know where to get a private MRI scan, which i am unsure of!!
