I think it is an excellent idea and should always be done. It is much more of a "rule out" for organic disorders that could be causing the symptoms than it is a "rule in" for mental disorders. In fact, it really doesn't say anything about mental disorders at all. If you get a PET Scan, these can sometimes show different areas of the brain that are hyperstimulated or understimulated, which can help point them in the direction of a potential mental health dx, but that's about it really.
Hope that helps.
