What techniques for imaging the brain would not be advisable for a person with a metal plate in his or her head?

PET or Positron Emission Tomography is not suitable for a person who has metal plate in his or her head. This is primarily due to the use of nuclear imaging technology. However, in some cases even an MRI scan might not be suitable.

What are the imaging techniques for studying the brain?
Imaging techniques are help in the study of any organ of the body - They help you learn about the functioning of the organs
Which of the following brain imaging techniques produce the most detailed picture of brain structure?
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI)
What is a brain imaging technique?
A brain imaging technique is a method used to visualize and examine the structure and function of the brain. Examples include MRI, CT scan, PET scan, and fMRI. These techniques are valuable in diagnosing neurological disorders, studying brain activity, and understanding the brain's anatomy.
Aggressive driver imaging?
Aggressive driver imaging refers to the use of different imaging techniques, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) or positron emission tomography (PET), to better understand the brain activity and neural correlates associated with aggressive driving behavior. By studying brain patterns, researchers aim to identify potential biological markers that may help in predicting or assessing aggressive driving tendencies.
What is the use of thermal imaging to detect tumours in the brain?
remember it for ever as 40% of it is by imaging
Which imaging technique is used to determine cardiac or cerebral perfusion plus brain imaging for epilepsy dementia and recurrent brain tumors?
PET
Which brain imaging technique records the oscillations of the brain's neurons?
EEGs

Which scientist studies mental processes and behavior?
Before the advent of brain imaging technology, the study of mental processes and behavior was the province of psychologists and psychiatrists. Anatomists could study the physical structure of the brain, but few techniques existed to link structure to behavior.Today we have various brain imaging techniques, including fMRI, PET, CAT and others that allow us to look inside the living brain and make connections between structure and mental processes and behavior. Neuroscientists are probably most associated with this type of research, but many aspects of neuroscience have been adopted by other fields so that we now have neuropsychologists, neuroanatomists, neurobehaviorists and others who use the techniques and knowledge of neuroscience to improve understanding in their own field.
What medical imaging device would best localize a brain tumor?
magnetic resonance imaging MRI
