Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) is a powerful medical imaging technique used to study brain function. It measures changes in blood flow in the brain using MRI technology, which can be used to infer changes in neural activity. fMRI is commonly used in neuroscience, psychology, and psychiatry to investigate a wide range of questions related…

CT Scan Technique
CT (Computed Tomography) scan is a widely used medical imaging technique that produces detailed, cross-sectional images of the body using x-rays and computer technology. The technique uses x-ray detectors, reconstruction algorithms and dose management techniques to minimize the radiation dose to the patient while producing high-quality images. Specialized CT scans such as CT angiography, CT…
