Diagnosis
of Autism Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder, characterized by impairments in social interaction, communication, and behaviour. Diagnosis focuses on evaluating a child’s development, considering their behaviour and language level. Autism can be diagnosed as early as 18 months of age, but early diagnosis can significantly improve the child’s chances of achieving a successful outcome. Treatment usually includes educational and behavioural interventions, and can help minimise the symptoms of the disorder. Proper diagnosis and treatment of autism can provide invaluable help for those affected, allowing them to lead healthy and productive lives.
