| 10711292551 | Electroencephalogram (EEG) | Electrodes placed on scaple measure electrical activity in neurons | 0 | |
| 10711292552 | Magnetoencephalography (MEG) | A head coil records magnetic fields from the brains natural electrical currents | 1 | |
| 10711292553 | Computer Tomography (CT) | X ray of the head generate images that may locate brain damage | 2 | |
| 10711292554 | Positron Emission Tomography (PET) | Tracks where a temporarily radioactive form of glucose goes while the brain of the person given it performs a given task | 3 | |
| 10711292555 | magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) | People sit or lie down in a chamber that uses magnetic field and radio waves to provide a map of brain structure | 4 | |
| 10711292556 | functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) | Measures blood flow to brain regions by comparing continuous MRI scans shows the blood movement | 5 | |
| 10711292557 | Electroencephalogram (EEG) | Symptoms of depression and anxiety correlate with increased activity in the right frontal lobe | 6 | |
| 10711292558 | EEG (electroencephalogram) | A brain area associated with behavioral withdrawal and negative emotion | 7 | |
| 10711292559 | Magnetoencephalography (MEG) | Soldiers with post traumatic stress disorders PTSD compared to those who don't have it | 8 | |
| 10711292560 | MEG | Show stronger stronger magnetic fields in the visual cortex when they view trauma related images | 9 | |
| 10711292561 | computed tomography (CT) | Children brain injuries shown in the scans predict impairmaents in their intelligence and memory process | 10 | |
| 10711292562 | Positron Emission Tomography (PET) | Monkeys with an anxious temperament have brains that use more glucose in regions related to fear memory and expectation of reward and punishment | 11 | |
| 10711292563 | magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) | People with history of violence tend to have smaller frontal lives especially in regions that aid moral judgment and self control | 12 | |
| 10711292564 | functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) | Years after surviving a near plan crash passengers who viewed material related to their trauma showed greater activation in the brains fear and memory and visual centers than when they watched footage related to 9/11 terrorist attacks | 13 |
