Abstract

Researchers at Stanford University, CA, and University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, used voxel-based morphometric analyses, and multivariate pattern and clustering analyses to compare brain MRI studies in 165 young boys, aged 1.57-4.15 years, diagnosed with idiopathic autism (iAUT) or fragile X syndrome (FXS) and idiopathic developmentally delayed and normal controls.
