Because you can't be bothered to read my posts. Even if it could be used to daignose it's much to expensive to be used practically and offers no advantages over the current methods used.


Current methods lead to 30% success rate with SSRI's in depression. There are over 1000 permutations of possible forms of "major depression". Diagnosis and treatment is too vague and imprecise for actual progress in psychiatry. So, yes, the goal of high precision individualized medicine in psychiatry is certainly there and of interest to the field. It's expensive, of course, but so is all medicine.

crude measure of brain activity instead of relying on the behavioral measures used by experts in the field?


Who said anything about crude measures? The field is heavily developing, becoming increasingly sophisticated in it's approaches and quantifications. Secondly, output of a system can be produced by many different ways, 1+4 = 5, but so does 7 - 2. Understanding the underlying biological mechanisms will lead to better more precise treatment.
