Quizplus · Accepted Answer

MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) uses a strong magnetic field to produce detailed images of the brain's anatomy. It is a non-invasive and safe method to study the brain's structure and can detect things like tumors, strokes, and nerve damage. CT scan (A) uses X-rays to produce images and is less detailed than MRI. TMS (B) uses magnetic stimulation to temporarily disrupt brain activity and observe changes in behavior or cognition. PET (D) uses a radioactive tracer to study brain function, but does not directly produce anatomical pictures.
