abstract="Sixteen men incarcerated in a state psychiatric facility pursuant to sexual molestation of children and/or adolescents were evaluated by computed tomography (CT) head scans and regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) estimation. Compared with controls, child molesters were found to have thinner and less dense skulls and lower rCBF values. Variations from control values in rCBF and characteristics of CT head scans for the sex offenders suggest a role for cerebral dysfunction in the etiology of their aberrant behavior.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
