I hope you understand that we are not professionals here just lay people looking for support.
None of us have had mri's that I know of or can read them. There is not any diagnostic tool to diagnose bipolar using anatomy brain tests that I am aware of. A good psychiatrist can thoroughly review a patients history of moods and behaviors to diagnose bipolar. you can look at the DSM4 or 5 if it is out. there are certain criteria that the patient must exhibit before a diagnosis can be made.
again I am not an expert and hopefully others can post to you. I don't know if you can diagnose on an mri or not...my guess is not the case.
good luck in your work/studies.
