About this Research Topic
Neuroimaging techniques have enabled significant advances in understanding neurodevelopmental disorders. Structural and functional MRI studies have identified abnormalities in brain regions involved in social cognition, language processing, executive function, and reward processing in conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and intellectual disability. Diffusion tensor imaging has revealed disruptions in white matter connectivity between networks that are critical for social, cognitive, and emotional development.
This Research Topic aims to highlight recent advances in neuroimaging research on neurodevelopmental disorders. We invite submissions of Original Research articles, Review papers, Case Reports, and methodological papers that utilize neuroimaging techniques such as structural MRI, functional MRI, diffusion tensor imaging, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, positron emission tomography, and magnetoencephalography, electroencephalography (EEG), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNRIS) to study the neuropathology, neurodevelopment, neuroplasticity, and treatment response in conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, intellectual disability, learning disability, and childhood apraxia of speech.
