MRI can give us a detailed picture of brain anatomy, a map of communication pathways, and even a measure of different chemicals in the brain. Read on to find out how.
At the Donders Institute, we use EEG or MEG to measure brain activity. These tools use special equipment to detect the electric current or magnetic field that brain cells generate.
At the Donders Institute, we use functional MRI to map brain activity. We do this by measuring the increase in oxygenated blood that accompanies neuronal activity.
ADHD is not just common in children but also in adults
