I've been reading about how there was a study that could diagnose autism using MRI scans of the brain. This doesn't seem to be part of the normal diagnosis process yet. (?)
I had an MRI aout 10 years ago, long before I ever thought about autism. The clinic still has my scans. Is it worth requesting them to be posted to me? Is there any point? I have my second assessment appointment next week.
The study referred to was in children under 2 years old and was very uncertain. Only 15 out of 148 had changes and this was in brain development
There has NEVER been any indication it is of relevance to adulthood so it will be of no use to you
