Twenty-seven infantile autistic children, nine children with other kinds of childhood psychoses, 23 children with mental retardation, and 16 normal children were examined with computerized tomography of the brain. Gross abnormalities were seen in 26% of the autism cases. It was also estimated that about the same proportion of a total population of infantile autistic children show gross changes of CT brain scan. Abnormalities in the region of the frontal horns of the ventricular system tended to be more common in the psychosis groups than in the normal group. Clear-cut right occipital protuberation was rather common in the small group of other psychoses cases but was only marginally more common in the autism than in the normal group. Evans' ratio was significantly higher in all three abnormal groups than in the normal group.
对27名患自闭症的儿童、9名患其他类型儿童期精神病的儿童、23名智力迟钝儿童和16名正常儿童进行了脑部计算机断层扫描检查。在26%的自闭症病例中发现了明显异常。据估计，在患自闭症的儿童总人口中，约有相同比例的儿童脑部CT扫描显示有明显变化。脑室系统额角区域的异常在精神病组中比在正常组中更常见。在一小部分其他精神病病例中，明显的右枕骨隆突相当常见，但在自闭症组中仅略高于正常组。所有三个异常组的埃文斯比率均显著高于正常组。
