Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) measures changes in blood flow to active brain regions, making it a suitable choice for studying brain activity during music listening. DTI (diffusion tensor imaging) and CT (computed tomography) are imaging techniques used to study brain structure, while PET (positron emission tomography) measures brain activity using a radioactive tracer. However, fMRI is the most commonly used imaging technique for studying brain activity during music listening.
