Advancements in Neurodevelopmental Disorder Diagnostics

Abstract

Stoica Lawrence

Neurodevelopmental disorders encompass a range of conditions, including autism spectrum disorder attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and intellectual disabilities, which emerge during the developmental period, often before a child enters grade school. Recent advancements in diagnostics have significantly enhanced our ability to identify and understand these disorders early and accurately. This article reviews the latest technologies and methodologies, including genetic testing, neuroimaging and artificial intelligence driven tools, that are transforming the landscape of diagnostics. The integration of these innovative approaches with traditional diagnostic criteria is facilitating earlier interventions, personalized treatment plans and improved outcomes for individuals with NDDs. By highlighting the key advancements and their implications, this review aims to underscore the importance of continuous research and development in this crucial field of medicine.
