fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) is the best choice for the researcher to observe a three-dimensional image of a patient's brain and detect a brain tumor while also having the ability to assess the current structure and function of the brain. fMRI measures changes in blood flow in the brain to identify active areas, providing detailed images of brain activity with high spatial resolution. This imaging technique could help pinpoint the precise location of a brain tumor, assess its biological activity, and observe its effects on brain function.
