This particular technique for studying the brain temporarily disrupts normal activity of the brain in a very small area.This is done by placing a coil on the person's head and passing a current through it.
A)electroencephalograms (EEGs)
B)transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)
C)magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
D)magnetoencephalography (MEG)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The described technique is transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), which involves using a coil to create a magnetic field that temporarily disrupts activity in a small area of the brain. Electroencephalograms (EEGs) measure electrical activity in the brain, but do not disrupt it, while magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) do not involve passing a current through the brain.
