  1. 1. Transcranial ___ stimulation is a technique that can be used to turn off an area of human cortex by creating a magnetic field under a coil positioned next to the skull.
  2. 3. - Functional ___ imaging has 3 advantages over PET and fMRI scans.
  3. 5. - a crude device used to record blood pressure
  4. 8. - Transcranial ___ stimulation is a technique that can be used to stimulate (“turn on”) an area of the cortex by applying an electrical current through two electrodes placed directly on the scalp.
  5. 9. - acronym for the first brain-imaging technique to provide images of brain activity (functional brain images) rather than images of brain structure (structural brain images)
  6. 12. - ___ MRI produces images representing the increase in oxygenated blood flow to active areas of the brain.
  7. 14. - various techniques for measuring changes in the volume of blood in a particular part of the body
  8. 15. - Cerebral ___ is a contrast x-ray technique that uses the infusion of a radio-opaque dye into a cerebral artery to visualize the cerebral circulatory system during x-ray photography.
  9. 16. - the record of measured muscle tension
  10. 17. - Computed ___ is a computer-assisted x-ray procedure that can be used to visualize the brain and other internal structures of the living body.

  1. 2. - Diffusion ___ MRI is a method of identifying those pathways along which water molecules rapidly diffuse
  2. 4. - acronym for a measure of the gross electrical activity of the brain
  3. 5. - acronym for a measure of the background level of skin conductance that is associated with a particular situation
  4. 6. - acronym for a structural brain-imaging procedure in which high-resolution images are constructed from the measurement of radio-frequency waves that hydrogen atoms emit as they align with a powerful magnetic field
  5. 7. - the recording of electrical signal associated with each heartbeat that is obtained via electrodes placed on the chest
  6. 10. - the type of signal recorded with an fMRI
  7. 11. - acronym for a measure of the transient changes in skin conductance that are associated with discrete experiences
  8. 13. - the types of waves that are associated with relaxed wakefulness in an EEG
