Questão
The structural changes in ASD are
Responda
-
Higher total brain volume starting between 6 and 12 months old
-
Early overgrowth which appears to be stemming from increased cortical surface area
-
Increased surface area, due to an increased number of radial units and/or wider spacing of cortical minicolumns
