brain scan

Mrs Waldron, 64, said Marina deteriorated the following day and was this time discharged by an A&E department, again with a migraine diagnosis and no brain scan.

This is done either via a PET brain scan or by having a lumbar puncture.

Tebartz van Elst and neurologist Kimon Runge run patients through a standard set of tests: bloodwork, electroencephalography, neurological exams, an MRI brain scan, and in many patients a spinal tap.

Following a GP appointment and a brain scan at York Hospital, Jack was taken to St James's Hospital in Leeds.

The findings come from a Stanford Medicine-led study, publishing April 11 in Molecular Psychiatry, that used brain scan data from children, teens and young adults with psychosis.
