Autism may be able to be detected as early as 9 months of age by using simple brain wave test, according to a new study.
Researchers at Children's Hospital in Boston have been conducting a large study on ways to identify markers of autism within the first year of life. In their research the found that a simple electroencephalogram (EEG) which measures brain electrical activity along with learning algorithms could predict with 80 percent accuracy of whether or not an infant is at a high risk for autism.
