Neuroimaging
Neuroimaging is the objective, non-invasive method of scientifically investigating the healthy human brain through the use of quantitative (computational) tools to research the anatomy and function of the central nervous system. It is also being utilised more and more in quantitative research studies related to mental health and brain disorders. Neuroimaging is not a medical speciality; rather, it is a highly diverse field including computer technology, psychology, statistics, and neuroscience. Neuroradiology and neuroimaging can occasionally be mistaken. Radiologists are medical professionals that specialise in neuroradiology, a branch of medicine that uses non-statistical brain imaging in a therapeutic context. The primary goal of neuroradiology is to identify lesions of the brain, including inflammatory diseases, tumours, vascular disorders, and strokes.
