The Magic of Brain Scans Understanding the Power of Imaging Techniques

Meer over het boek

Advancements in brain imaging have transformed our understanding of the human brain's complexities, revealing insights into its structure and function. Techniques such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) provide detailed anatomical images, while Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) measures brain activity through blood flow changes. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) assesses brain metabolism, and other methods like Electroencephalography (EEG) and Magnetoencephalography (MEG) capture electrical and magnetic signals. Together, these tools enhance diagnosis and treatment of neurological conditions.
