Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

The attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a disease of unknown etiology. Diagnostic criteria were established by the American Psychiatric Association in 2000 and revised in 2013. Although ADHD is characterized by attention-deficit, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, not all the symptoms have to be present. Despite the fact ADHD is one of the most common behavioral disorders in early life, it is infrequently discussed in the current medical literature.
