Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Analyzing metabolites is a common method for assessing neurotransmitters as neurotransmitters are rapidly metabolized in the brain, leading to the formation of metabolites that can be traced in the biological fluids. Analyzing these metabolites can give an indication of the level of neurotransmitter function within the brain. CT scan and X-ray are not methods used to assess neurotransmitters, while measuring dopamine is a specific example of analyzing a neurotransmitter rather than a general method for assessing neurotransmitters.
