Abstract

Structural and functional neuroimaging research into ADHD has generated overwhelming and compelling evidence that ADHD symptoms are a manifestation of abnormally functioning brain circuitry [4, 38, 156, 260, 266, 278, 279]. Brain volume abnormalities are consistently found in the cerebellum, the corpus callosum splenium, total and right cerebral hemisphere volume, and within the right caudate nucleus of people with ADHD [280].
