MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) produces highly detailed images of brain structures and allows for any two-dimensional plane to be selected and displayed as an image on a computer screen. MRI uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to generate images of the brain. CT (Computed Tomography) scan produces detailed images as well, but not as detailed as MRI, and involves exposure to ionizing radiation. ESB (Electrical Stimulation of the Brain) and EEG (Electroencephalogram) are techniques for studying brain activity, but do not produce detailed images of brain structures.
