obese: a cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging and metabolic technique. Obesity is one of the major health issues in developed Western countries‚ especially in the United States of America (Danias‚ 2003). Previous investigations with magnetic resonance imaging have shown that obesity independently alters the structure and systolic/diastolic function of the heart. This has been evaluated with great detail by using cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). CMR can observe the left and right

technology in investigating cognitive processes. Technology has been very useful for the past few years in investigating cognitive process. With the use of neuro-imaging techniques‚ researchers can examine brain structure and function‚ and thus understand better the relationship between cognition and physiology. The basic neuro-imaging techniques are the PET‚ the MRI‚ and THE fMRI scan. The PET or else the positron emission tomography is used to detect brain tumors or memory disorders caused by

are various lung diseases that result in the almost same sign and symptoms as in case of cancer‚ yet the treatment strategies vary in each case. Lung cancer complete diagnosis can be done by the imaging and biopsy method in addition to the staging of cancer according to the TNM classification. Various imaging techniques are frequently employed to diagnose a particular condition while X ray analysis of computed tomography CT scans is used for this purpose. X ray analysis is useful in case of apparent

Extra Credit Paper The cognitive system is organized hierarchically. The most basic perceptual systems are located at the bottom of the hierarchy‚ and the most complex cognitive (e.g. memory‚ problem solving) systems are located at the top of the hierarchy. Information can flow both from the bottom of the system to the top of the system and from the top of the system to the bottom of the system. When information flows from the top of the system to the bottom of the system this is called

Cerebral Lateralization and Functionality There are several methods for studying cerebral lateralization; four methods in the forefront are the study of unilateral lesions‚ sodium amytal‚ dichotic listening‚ and functional brain imaging. The traditional method for studying cerebral lateralization is unilateral lesions study‚ which is the study of the location and effect lesions have on the brain and body functionality. In past‚ this was primarily done after the subject was deceased or through
