- What is meant by deep brain stimulation ?arrow_forwardimagine that you are a neurologist. A patient has come to you with a cognitive deficit in their ability to name objects. Describe a brain activity recording technique you would use (e.g., PET, fMRI) and the brain area you would focus on (e.g., occipital lobe, temporal lobe) to determine if they have brain damage in an area that is important for this ability. You must name and describe the specific recording technique.arrow_forwardWhy it is difficult to determine the accuracy of a “memory” that is recovered in therapy?arrow_forward
