The remaining articles focus on specific aspects of brain and behavior in FASD, where data are more limited. The article by Coles and Li reviews findings based on functional and biochemical neuroimaging methods. These are recent reports and illustrate the feasibility of using neuroimaging in this population. A notable refrain in the functional studies is the identification of compromised efficacy in the processing resources of the brain. Despite inconsistencies in the published literature, the authors note the limitations of the studies in this burgeoning field and discuss variables and confounds that may have influenced the outcomes.
