[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This doesn't answer the question-are their MRI studies showing that the disorders are indeed different?[/quote] Not the PP who provided the information (thanks!) but I read the article as well as a couple of the research studies and the question IS answered. MERLD is a type of speech delay. According to this study http://radiology.rsna.org/content/229/3/651.full , they did brain MRIs on kids who were referred to their clinic for speech delays. The mean age of the test group was age 4.2. The conclusion is that kids with speech delays ('late talkers') older than age 3 use the right side of their brains more frequently than kids that don't have delays. Are you really asking if there are studies out there that indicate you can diagnose disorders based on MRI results? Not yet.[/quote]
