The extensive recent research utilizing neuroimaging techniques to study pain in healthy subjects has many clinical implications for pain diagnosis and treatment. For the sake of brevity, this response will focus on fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imagining), a method that surveys changes in blood flow assumed to be reflecting alterations in neural activity and maps them to an anatomical representation of the patient’s brain (Borsook, Burstein et al. 2004). The culmination of several fMRI…

Bone is a common site of metastases for many primarily malignant tumors, being the third location after liver and lung [5]. Bone metastases are a major clinical concern as they can deteriorate the bone structure causing pathological fractures, vertebral/spinal instability, severe pain, spinal cord compression, functional impairment and increased mortality. The vertebral column being the most frequent site of bone metastasis and one of the major organs in human body strongly correlated to neural…

turns out it may just be all in the brain. According to Frontline producer Sarah Spinks (n.d.) it is not only hormones or attitude that may be to blame for teens’ behaviors but now that adolecents’ brains are being studied through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) there is evidence that…

obtained in 2014 by Chuang et al. (frontal lobes vs parietal lobes) most probably result from using different cognitive tasks in the MRI scanner (SCWT vs the Flanker Task). It is significant, however, that the results obtained with the magnetic resonance correspond to the results of the neuropsychological examination. The asymmetry of inhibitory processes (which are needed for correct executive control) is reflected in poor performance in neuropsychological tests. Verbal perseverations, both…

diagnostic purposes. The diagnosis from a radiographer’s image can affect, determine the treatment and care of a healthcare team. Wide ranges of imaging methods are used these include Ultrasound, X-ray, Fluoroscopy, Computed Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Ranges of dyes or contrast agents are sometimes used to show…

MRI and CT scans are important in the medical field because they distinguish between healthy and unhealthy tissue in the human body. Doctors use these tests so they can see through a picture what is wrong with a patient. Even though both tests are important and helpful, they have their pros and cons. Many people may think that MRI’s and CT’s are similar because they both provide images on the inside of the human body. These two machines work differently and are used differently. MRI scans are…

Brain imaging technologies are methods used in psychology to examine the human brain. It provides an opportunity for researchers to study the active brain and allows specific regions and brain processes to be observed. Researchers include these brain imaging technologies into their studies, like the Tierney et al. (2001) and Maguire et al. (2000) studies, in order to understand the correlation between brain activity and behavior. The following essay will discuss the brain imaging technologies,…

specific emotion.” (Weiss 453) Everyone knows love exists and it can be measured and analyzed. Love is a real thing. The concept of sexual desire and romantic love are intertwinded. These researchers analyzed the twenty seperate Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scans trials of subjects engaged on tasks. The trial subjects engaged in looking at porn, and photos of significant others. Photos of their acquaintances non pornagraphic. Researchers were able to show the subjects how these…

An MRI scanner or a magnetic resonance imaging is a common apparatus used within hospitals which uses a scanning technique to show detailed images of the inside of a human body. There are two ways which an MRI scanner takes images of the human body. The two ways are the use of a strong magnetic field and the use of radio waves. There are two ways which MRI scanners work and the first is by hydrogen atoms. How this links within the human body is by the main link of hydrogen protons which are…

Primarily in the area of health, speaking in the social environment can be very large as can be seen in two ways in the behavior of society and medical. In society today is a trend one cyber world which may influence decisions on changing lifestyle , behavior or decisions through many factors such as social networks in which a statistical sample that at least are recorded 3,803,000 people , you can advertise through these means to make health and are physically, spiritually and emotionally…
