Sofia has suffered a head injury and can no longer speak. However, after rehabiliation she recovers her ability to speak. Interested in what area is now active during speaking, researchers decide to use this technique: PET (Positron emission tomography) O CAT (computerzed axial tomography) O MRI (magnctic resonance imaging) O angiogram
