Abstract
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a
neurodevelopmental disorder that has unique brain structures associated with it.
These brain areas are interspersed throughout the brain and include cortical
structures, subcortical structures, and deep brain structures. This review
compiles the studies implicated in ADHD from 2011 until the present, 2021. There
are main areas that have consistently been reported to be involved in ADHD,
such as prefrontal cortex regions, anterior cingulate cortex, basal ganglia, putamen,
caudate nucleus, etc. Despite increased research, many areas will need further
research before any conclusions can be made as to their involvement in ADHD. This
review helps to further support that ADHD is a unique disorder that has
specific brain morphologies.
