an amplified recording of the waves of electrical activity sweeping across the brains surface. these waves are measured by electrodotes placed on the scalp.

brains imaging technique that measures magnetic fields from the brains natural activity

series of x-ray photographs taken from different angles and combined by computer into composite representation of slice of the brains structures

technique for detecting brain activity that displays where a radioactive form of glucose goes while the brain preforms a given task.

Technique that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce computer generated images of soft tissue. MRI scans show brain anatomy

technique for revealing blood flow and there fore brain activity by comparing succesive MRI scans. FMRI scans show brain function and structure.
