To Get A Brain Scan Done

One of the most advanced diagnostic tests of all time is the PET test. Parkinson's disease, for instance, is visible in the PET test brain. One of the most significant benefits of doing a normal brain PET scan is that it tells you about how far the disease in the brain has progressed. Even in the case of accidents where external injuries to the head are not visible, a PET scan will tell you whether there have been internal injuries and the extent of the internal injuries. A PET scan can identify potential health problems in the body and will give you an idea of what exactly is happening inside your body. To know more, click here.https://www.andersondiagnostics.com/

Presentation Transcript

  1. To detect brain tumors, infections, injuries or bleeding in the brain or even structural abnormalities, a brain scan is used.

  2. CT brain scan or computed tomography and MRI or magnetic resonance imaging are two types of brain scans to diagnose medical issues.

  3. It is possible for doctors to view activity in the human brain through brain imaging techniques which are safe, without invasive neurosurgery.

  4. fMRI is a method for measuring the activity in the brain and it can detect changes in the oxygenation of blood and flow.

  5. In a specific mental process the fMRI can be used to produce activation maps that show a particular process of the brain.

  6. Based on the differential absorption of X-rays, a CT scan is able to build a picture of the brain and its activity.

  7. The PET scan for heart is able to use radioactive material known as tracers to show how the brain is functioning.

  8. Another way to measure the electrical activity of the brain is through the Electroencephalography (EEG) and the result is called an electroencephalogram (EEG).

  9. Another imaging technique is known as Magnetoencephalography (MEG) which measures magnetic fields produced by the electric activity in the brain.

  10. One of the most well-known optical techniques for measuring the oxygenation of blood in the brain is known as near infrared spectroscopy.
