Brain Imaging techniques

The patient will be given a radioactive substance and asked to complete a task to see which part of the brain is being utilized.

• MRI

• PET

• CT Scan

• EEG

This image uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce computer-generated images that distinguish among different types of brain tissue.

• MRI

• PET

• EEG

• CAT scan

This is a technique for measuring and mapping brain activity that is noninvasive and safe.

• EEG

• X-Ray

• fMRI

• CAT scan
