Neural imaging techniques are tools used to visualize the structure and function of the brain and nervous system. These methods help scientists and doctors understand how the brain works, diagnose neurological conditions, and guide treatments.

One common structural imaging technique is Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), which uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of brain anatomy. It helps detect abnormalities like tumors, strokes, or brain atrophy. Another structural method is Computed Tomography (CT), which uses X-rays to produce cross-sectional images, often used in emergencies.
