88% Informative

University of Virginia engineering professor Gustavo K. Rohde has developed a system that can spot genetic markers of autism in brain images with 89 to 95% accuracy.

Using a novel mathematical modeling technique, their system reveals brain structure patterns that predict variations in certain regions of the individual’s genetic code.

This means this truly personalized medicine could result in earlier interventions.
