Our knowledge of how the brain works and where particular functions are localized comes from thousands of studies of brain function. The Human Brain : Lesion method Computerized tomography (CT) or computerized axial tomography (CAT) scans Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) X-rays Brain imaging Methods For Studying The Brain Slide 3: This technique tells us about more of structure than function. There are several of these techniques available. Sensory Neuron Brain imaging Lesion method : Lesion method A lesion is an area of damage to the brain. By correlating specific losses of function with damage to specific areas of the brain, the lesion method has provided a great deal of information about functional localization in the brain. Lesions may be created intentionally or unintentionally by a variety of different methods: Brain Lesions Computerized tomography (CT) or computerized axial tomography (CAT) scans : Computerized tomography (CT) or computerized axial tomography (CAT) scans This imaging technique uses a series of x-rays taken from different positions around the skull. A computer then reconstructs "slices" through the brain. Resolution is greatly improved (over conventional x-rays) using this technique, but these images, by themselves, do not tell us anything about brain function. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) : Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) This technique provides high resolution images of slices through the brain in a variety of planes. Although brain structures are clearly visible using this technique, ordinary MRI images provide no information about brain function. X-rays : X-rays Of the imaging techniques, these provide the least information about brain structure. Since the brain is surrounded by the dense skull, x-ray images usually do not provide very clear images of the brain. How do we study the brain? : How do we study the brain? Biopsychology Through the use of all the above mentioned methods, Imaging using MRI, CAT Scans, and other brain Imaging techniques, we learn about the brain through Behavioral Neuroscience, or biological psychology as the principle of neurobiology to study mental processes and behavior. We learn how to measure and enhance neural activity and function. Imaging alone does not give a complete learning process, but with Biopsychology we can learn about human nature and how and why we behave as we do and how a deficit can be the cause of an illness. NeurotransmittersFigure 1 : NeurotransmittersFigure 1 Biopsychology is a part of psychology that studies how neurotransmitters and the brain may have effects on our behaviors, how we think and our emotions.
