Computerized tomography in patients with tardive dyskinesia

Published Online:https://doi.org/10.1176/ajp.133.5.578

The author reviews the results of computerized tomography performed on eight patients with tardive dyskinesia to determine whether there was permanent structural damage. No significant abnormalities were found.
