Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Positron emission tomography (PET) is a highly sensitive technology that uses a radioactive substance to show the chemical and functional changes within the brain. Chemical and functional changes cannot be seen by other imaging methods, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT).
Detailed explanation-2: -Ways of Studying the Brain: Scanning Techniques, including Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI); Electroencephalogram (EEGs) and Event-Related Potentials (ERPs); Post-Mortem Examinations.
Detailed explanation-3: -Electroencephalography (EEG) First discovered about a century ago, EEG measures electrical activities of the brain from electrodes placed on the scalp.
