A brain-imaging method using radio waves and magnetic fields of the body to produce detailed images of the brain is called __________.
A) electroencephalography (EEG)
B) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
C) positron emission tomography (PET)
D) computed tomography (CT)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a brain-imaging method that uses radio waves and magnetic fields to produce detailed images of the brain. EEG (electroencephalography) measures electrical activity in the brain, PET (positron emission tomography) uses a small amount of radioactive material to show how different parts of the brain are working, and CT (computed tomography) uses X-rays to create detailed images of the brain.
