Topic 2.7
Why might neuroscientists prefer fMRI over CT scans when researching brain function?
fMRIs are less expensive than CT scans.
CT scans can't display detailed images of the brain's interior structures.
CT scans expose patients to harmful radiation.
fMRIs show both structure and blood flow in the brain.
