A) functional magnetic resonance imaging
B) positron emission tomography
C) diffusion spectrum imaging
D) the psycograph

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Diffusion spectrum imaging is the brain-scanning technique that allows neuroscientists to produce three-dimensional images of the neural pathways that connect one part of the brain to another. Functional magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography can show brain activity but do not provide detailed information on the pathways that connect different brain regions. The psycograph is a fictitious term and not a real brain-scanning technique.
