Answer:

Answered below

Step-by-step explanation:

Electroencephalography produces a record of the electrical activities in the brain. An electroencephalography is a test used to diagnose brain conditions such as epilepsy and other seizure disorders. Electrical activities are displayed on the electroencephalogram.

Functional magnetic resonance imaging produces images of brain structure and function. It shows the functional processes of the brain such as blood flow and neuronal activations.

The positron emission tomography scan produces images of metabolic activities in the brain. It uses radioisotopes to show the distribution of chemicals or neurotransmitters and measure the metabolic activities.

Computed tomography scan is uses many X-rays to produce images of brain structures. It is used in the diagnosis of many structural abnormalities.

Magnetic resonance imaging produces images of brain structures by the use of magnetic impulses. It is a lot safer as it doesn't produce dangerous radiations.
