His story has taught us that different parts of the brain control different things and the part of his brain that got injured effects a person’s memory‚ personality‚ and emotion. 2 New research is using functional MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)‚ a scan of the brain that shows specific areas that are activated during certain tasks‚ as a lie detector test. Explain which area(s) of the brain you think might light up to show that you are telling a lie or telling the truth. Explain your reasoning

When young men who don’t normally play a lot of video games are exposed to violent video games‚ changes occur in the way their brains function‚ new research shows. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging‚ the scientists conducted that document altered brain response time after playing these video games. A lot of these changes had affected them in the long term also. It is proven that video games do have an affect on your brain‚ but it is still not

History has been made when The Electrical Engineering Faculty of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) poneering the digital signal processing to detect a person’s heart status (Zu Ao‚2000). 2. The capabilities of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been improved through the application of digital signal processing (IEEE‚ 1999). 3. Digital Signal Processing plays a big role in medical field (Ifeachor‚1996). B. Military technology such as radar has been improved by the application

The principle task of our project is to recognize a tumor and its quantifications from a particular MRI scan of a brain image using digital image processing techniques and compute the area of the tumor by fully automated process. In medical imaging‚ segmentation of images plays a vital role in stages which occur before implementing object recognition. The critical problem is finding the tumor location automatically and later finding its boundary precisely. An important factor in detecting tumor

getting out what they want to say‚ and a person who clutters says what they are thinking‚ but it becomes disorganized while actually speaking. Apraxia is thought to be due to a brain impairment that may or may not show up on brain magnetic resonance imaging tests. The ability to understand language and produce speech is coordinated by the brain. So a person with brain damage from an accident‚ stroke‚ or birth defect may have speech and language problems. Genetics may also play a role in some speech

On the Chinese medical device market‚ imported medical devices made by overseas and multinational medical device manufacturers account for about a half‚ in which the high-tech and high-valued medical devices‚ such as magnetic resonance imaging‚ CT are almost monopolized by GE‚ Siemens‚ Philips and other overseas and multinational companies. It is estimated that Chinese medical device market will be likely to be more than 340 billion RMB by 2015‚ and will surpass Japan to become the second

Radiology Technicians are a special group of individuals who specialize in X-Ray technology. These individuals have been specifically trained to take many types of X-rays. One study states “ Employment of Radiogrophy Technicians is projected to grow by 25% between 2006 and 2016” this means that this profession is in high demand. Therefor the three main reasons that Radiogrophy technicians are important to society is that they go through specialized training for their jobs‚ plus they must have a good

In the current study the eye globes (Figure 1a) were removed from the human cadavers and employed for further experimental measurements. After removing the eyes from the cadavers‚ a set of MRI/CT images were taken according to the purpose we had to have a clear image of eye components and its dimensions. The images were then used to make a FE model of the eye based on the MRI/CT data as presented in Figure 1b. Thereafter‚ in order to have a smoother FE model to be able to mesh its components‚ the
