Brain's Magnetic Fields Reveal Language Delays In Autism

Faint magnetic signals from brain activity in children with autism show that those children process sound and language differently from nonautistic children. Identifying and classifying these brain response patterns may allow researchers to more accurately diagnose autism and possibly aid in developing more effective treatments for the developmental disorder. Pediatric researchers used magnetocephalography to detect magnetic fields in the brain.
