==Diagnosis==
Quantitative methods of assessing utilization behavior are not available for use and because of this those who notice changes in behavior similar to that of the signs of UB should see a doctor. Many [[functional disorders]] can be mistaken for frontal dysfunction as several neurological causes can be attributed to frontal dysfunction. Proper criteria need to be in place for determining UB but because this disorder is in the elementary stage, researchers have not arrived at a full understanding of the disorder. <ref>Stuss, D.T., Grow, C. A., Hetherington, C.R. (1992). "No longer gage": Frontal lobe dysfunction and emotional changes. Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 60(3), 349-359.</ref> Doctors can test the patient’s response, communication and [[motor skills]] but the only way to fully diagnose this disorder is to do a scan of the brain to see if the frontal lobe has been damaged. This can be done with the following scan types.
* CT Scan ([[X-ray computed tomography]])
* MRI ([[Magnetic resonance imaging]])
