Are These Brain Scans Too Good To Be True? | Dr. Daniel Amen

Dec 14th, 2025 3:00 PM

We reached out to the Canadian Association of Nuclear Medicine for their comments regarding what Dr. Amen says at 1:03:31. They responded with the following statement on December 12th 2025: “At this time, CANM considers that the guidelines require further rigorous review and validation through an independent, expert-led editorial and peer-review process. Until such a process has been completed, CANM believes it would be premature to adopt, endorse, or formally comment on the recommendations contained therein.”I'll teach you how to become the media's go-to expert in your field.
