Functional and anatomical imaging of the developing central nervous system continue to engender considerable interest. Structural anomalies have been further defined and catalogued, aiding in the diagnosis and genetic counseling of children with developmental delay. Anomalous development of the brain has recently been linked to certain neuropsychiatric disorders. The natural course of many of the metabolic brain disorders has now been chronicled with imaging studies, rendering standards on which to evaluate efficacy of treatment.
