Neuroimaging is re-writing our map of the brain.
The second film in the series looks at how our knowledge and understanding of the brain was revolutionised towards the end of the 20th Century by developments in neuroimaging, such as CT, PET, MRI, fMRI and DTI scanning. The film then explores some of the ways neuroimaging has altered our knowledge of the brain, such as the recent revelation that language is actually processed in many different parts of the brain, and then looks at how it has also opened the door to new areas of research, such as how our brain can be altered by changes in our cultural and physical environments.
