Discussion\u2014Brain Scans and Application of Research to Brain Injury<\/p>\n
The past twenty years have seen advancements in technology that were critical to further understanding concepts in cognitive psychology. Two such developments are positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. These scans allow researchers to \u201csee\u201d the brain in action.<\/p>\n
Research how brain scans can diagnose injury and disease using the Internet and the online library resources. Based on your research, answer the following questions:<\/p>\n
PETs and MRIs also can diagnose head injuries. Consider the following scenario:<\/p>\n
You are working at a Veterans Affairs (VA) hospital and meet with Allison. Allison is in the US Army and has just returned home from a deployment. During her deployment, a bomb was thrown into a vehicle in which she was riding. She was not severely injured but was told that she sustained a mild traumatic brain injury (TBI).<\/p>\n
