Autism can be detected at age 1 year in some (but not all) toddlers Results of the Pierce study (2011) indicated that it is possible to detect some toddlers showing early signs autism and other delays at 12 months using a simple, broad band screening tool (i.e., the CSBS DP IT Checklist) that takes only 5 minutes for a caregiver to complete.
Technology is helping pediatricians do a better job screening for autism by identifying at-risk children at the 24-month visit. In todayâs medical climate, pediatricians often do not have the time to perform a detailed screen in the short time allotted for preventive care.
