A technology combination refers to the use of multiple tools or methods together to achieve a desired outcome. In the context of examining the brain, a technology combination involves utilizing different technologies simultaneously to study both its structure and function.
fMRI measures changes in blood flow within the brain, allowing researchers to observe brain activity associated with specific tasks or stimuli.
PET (Positron Emission Tomography): PET scans involve injecting a radioactive tracer into the body which is then detected by a scanner. It shows areas of high metabolic activity in the brain, providing information about its function.
