5 Different Types of Scans

Analysis of electrical activity in the brain EEG Analysis of electrical activity in the brain

2. CT Scan X-ray photograph taken of the skull and brain

3. PET Scan Uses glucose to detect active parts of the brain

4. MRI Uses magnetic fields to detect activity. Shows structural details

Same technology but uses blood flow to look at activity. 5. Functional MRI (fMRI) Same technology but uses blood flow to look at activity.
