Synopsis

As the most common childhood-onset neurodevelopmental disorder, the pathogenesis of attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is still unclear. Non-invasive neuroimaging methods open new avenues to characterize developmental changes in the human brain. Neurovascular coupling (NVC) reflects the close relationship between neuronal activity and cerebral blood flow (CBF), which provides a new mechanistic insight into developmental brain alteration. We aim to investigate the potential NVC alteration in ADHD children.
