Neuroimaging: Neuroimaging refers to techniques used to visualize and study the structure and function of the brain non-invasively. One example is Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), which uses magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the brain.
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI): fMRI is a neuroimaging technique that measures changes in blood flow within the brain while a person performs certain tasks or experiences certain emotions. It helps identify which brain regions are active during specific activities.
Positron Emission Tomography (PET): PET scan involves injecting a small amount of radioactive substance into the body, which then emits positrons that can be detected by scanners. It shows how organs and tissues are functioning, including identifying activity levels in various brain regions.
