Scan to reveal brain disease clue

Iron sometimes collects in brain tissue
A high resolution x-ray scanning technique can look inside a single
brain tissue cell.
Scientists say it will help to pin down the role of iron and other
metals in neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's
disease.

The new technique, developed by Keele University, can identify where
the compounds are within the brain, and thus whether they are harmful.

Details are published in the journal Interface.

I wonder if there's a brain scan to reveal what you suffer from: total
and complete stupidity.
