Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the last 20 years, the advent of neurophysiological, clinical tools, and neuroimaging techniques has provided evidence of the complexity of the developing brain. Recent studies on low- and high-risk infants have described the maturation of specific aspects of function and their correlation with neuroimaging.
Parallel to early detection efforts, the improved understanding of neurodevelopment is leading to an increased availability of early treatment and rehabilitation programs.
The aim of this Special Issue is to collect the most recent evidence of assessments and interventions for pediatric patients with or at risk of neurodevelopmental disorders. The manuscripts may include any format (original article, systematic review, state-of-the-art review) and cover topics that contribute to this issue. These include, but are not limited to, manuscripts on neuroimaging, neurophysiology, and neuromotor or behavioral assessments for detection, prediction, or classification in pediatric patients. The inclusion of reports or protocols about interventions and rehabilitation programs in the field of pediatric neurology and psychiatry is equally important.
Dr. Domenico Romeo
