Methods

Brain Lesions

Natural occurring trauma or disease affecting the brain, linked to neurological dysfunctions such as stroke or tumors.

Closed Head Injury

A type of brain injury where the skull remains intact, often resulting from impact.

Open Head Injury

A type of brain injury where the skull is penetrated, exposing the brain to external elements.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)

A non-invasive method that uses magnetic fields to stimulate neuronal activity.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)

A non-invasive technique that applies a constant, low current to the scalp to modulate neuronal activity.

CAT Scan (CT)

An imaging technique that uses X-rays to create 2D images of the brain.

MRI (Structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging)

An imaging technique that uses magnetic fields to visualize internal structures of the brain without radiation.

EEG (Electroencephalography)

A method that records electrical activity of the brain via electrodes placed on the scalp.

Event-related potentials (ERPs)

Electrical activity measured in response to specific events, averaged from ongoing EEG signals.

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI)

An imaging method that measures brain activity by detecting changes in blood flow related to neural activity.
