ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a method for diagnosing a psychiatric disorder in a patient. The method involves administering to the patient a plurality of concentrations of a chemosensory agent, identifying at least a 5 decismel change in the threshold amount of the chemosensory agent detected by the patient, and correlating the change in detection of the chemosensory agent with at least one psychiatric disorder.
