Background:

Review of electroencephalogram (EEG) frequency analysis (neurometrics) and functional dynamic brain imaging.
Focus on clinical applications for childhood learning disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

To review the development of neurometrics and functional brain imaging techniques.
To discuss their clinical applications in diagnosing and treating childhood learning disorders.

Main Methods:

Literature review of neurometric and functional brain imaging studies.
Analysis of clinical applications in learning disorders.

Main Results:

Neurometrics and brain imaging show potential in understanding learning disorders.
Evoked-potential, cerebral blood flow, and glucose metabolic studies offer promise.

Conclusions:

Neurometric sensitivity and specificity for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) require further investigation.
Predictive value for medication response could establish neurometrics' clinical importance.
Advanced imaging techniques may elucidate psychological processes in ADHD.
