SWOT Analysis: Cortical Age Gap: An MRI Maturation Readout for Borderline Pediatric ADHD
A software module that reads a child's routine brain MRI and reports how many years their motor and sensory cortex maturation lags age-matched peers — the 2-3-year delay seen in ADHD — giving clinicians an objective adjunct for the hardest borderline calls.
The SWOT analysis reveals a high-value clinical niche in resolving diagnostic ambiguity for borderline ADHD cases using objective biomarkers. While the genetic and structural evidence is strong, the primary risk lies in the biological heterogeneity of cortical thickness and the potential for clinical resistance to a non-standalone diagnostic tool.
