Neuroimaging in child neuropsychiatric disorders by B. Garreau

By B. Garreau

The 20th century was once the century of the improvement of morphological cerebral imaging through tomodensitometry (TDM) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). in recent times new mind imaging equipment have been utilized in adults with neurological lesions, and extra lately in adults with psychiatric problems. Now it's also attainable to exploit, almost all these morphological and sensible mind imaging equipment in children.
This e-book offers the most morphological and practical mind imaging tools that we will be able to use within the baby. major purposes are developped: physiopathological and therapeutical curiosity. The physiopathological technique is of a superb curiosity, coupled with scientific review in psychomotor issues like hyperkinetic or Tourette syndrom, and in developmental problems like autistic syndrom, psychological retardation, Rett Syndrom ...

In addition, it has serious limitations as regards study of the brain stem and cerebellum because of X ray absorption by bone. On the other hand, it can be useful for detection and localization of cerebral calcification for correlation with the neuropsychological development. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) The phenomenon of nuclear magnetic resonance was described by Bloch and Purcell in 1946 and since then has been used for the study of certain molecules. The underlying principle involves determining the frequency that causes the resonance of identical atomic nuclei in a cell, providing they have a magnetic moment.

NO is a highly reactive, diffusible molecule and has a half life of only a few seconds; it is difficult to detect and measure (Archer, 1993). An indirect approach is to use agents which modify ilie enzymatic activity of NO synthase. arginine - 1. citrulline + NO. Two series of experiments have shown the role of NO in perfusion-activity coupling. , 1989; Methods: principles, anatomical and physiological bases PET and SPECT Garthwaite, 1991}: this show that NO plays a role in the cellular response to activation of glutamate receptors.
