A simple brain trace can identify autism in children as young as two years old, scientists believe. A US team at Boston Children's Hospital say EEG traces, which record electrical brain activity ...

The largest, most rigorous study to date to investigate EEGs as a potential diagnostic tool for autism offers hope for an earlier, more definitive test. Widely available EEG testing can ...

EEG tests, which record brain activity, are non-invasive and inexpensive and in the study, the team was able to predict autism in children as young as three months old by using algorithms to analyze ...

A team of researchers at Boston Children's Hospital and Boston University have made s major breakthrough in the early diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Their new study suggests that ...

Autism is challenging to diagnose, especially early in life. A new study shows that inexpensive EEGs, which measure brain electrical activity, accurately predict or rule out autism spectrum ...

Scientists believe that a simple brain trace known as an EEG may be capable of detecting autism in children as young as two years old, the BBC News reported.

Researchers who've spent years deciphering autism say RFK Jr.'s debunked claims about the disorder may undermine decades of science into a complex condition that affects millions of children.

The participants included 60 children ages seven to 17 both with and without an autism spectrum disorder. The researchers used visual illusions (such as groups of Pac-Man-shaped images that create the ...
