PSYB32H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 4: Ct Scan, Positron Emission Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Document Summary
We have background data, behavioral observation, quantitively test (testing and qualitative testing. You need to use all this to show that you are coming to a comprehensive conclusion. It doesn"t make sense for someone to have so much sickness such as depression schizophrenia, bipolar and be working well at there job. What can they do: you can use non-verbal to measure it to get. But you need to consider everything such as background data, behavioral observation, quantitively test (testing and qualitative testing: the use of translators, test in different languages. Brain imaging: computerized axial tomography (cat scan, magnetic resonance imaging (mri, functional mri (fmri, positron emission tomography (pet scan) It shows more accurate information: shows shearing and tearing images. Spect: functional neuroimage and allows us to show function of the brain. Less expensive: readily available, sensitive but not specific, it can show brain abnormal but can"t say why.
