Methamphetamine (MA) is a drug which has got a considerable prevalence of abuse in the world. Therefore, it is of great importance to understand the deficits and problems that it makes in brain, structurally and functionally, in order to increase knowledge of people about it and help finding better ways of treatments. Neuroimaging techniques as the most powerful tools to study the brain functions and structures, in the recent decades have been used to find out the brain deficits caused by the MA abuse. Here we would have a short review on the neuroimaging findings in MA abusers and the children with prenatally exposure to MA, with the focus on electroencephalography (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and functional MRI studies.
