SPECT Brain Imaging and ADD
undersurface view of a normal brain (Below) AD/HD, combined
type with both symptoms of
inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity. Brain SPECT imaging typically shows
decreased activity in the basal ganglia and prefrontal cortex during a
concentration task. This subtype of ADD typically responds best to
psycho-stimulant medication.
