I'm sorry, I think I gave everyone the wrong idea. I didn't mean to imply psychiatrists and psychologists were doing wrong by not asking for brain scans (and just for the record, when I said, "MRI," I meant it in a generic way; I didn't know the difference between MRIs and PETs and other ways of looking into the body), and I didn't mean I want one. I just wondered what others thought about if we should or not.

You all make good points, and I thank you. As I said, I'm not a fan of Dr. Oz, but I also realize that doesn't mean he's wrong. In the particular episode I was speaking of, he was showing how a normal brain was different in activity than an abnormal brain.
