Help! need to know if there's a device that can measure the brain performance?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There are devices that can measure brain performance to a certain extent. For example, eegs are used to measure brain activity. Electrodes placed on the scalp detect the underlying electrical activity. Functional brain mris can detect certain areas that " light up" as they control areas for movement, speech generation, thought generation.
