Brain imaging for psychiatrists: A series of articles

Brain imaging has advanced massively in the past two decades. Modern tools such as positron emission tomography (PET), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Magnetoencephalography (MEG) allow us a much clearer view of how the brain works: we can almost literally “look inside the skull”. This series of articles introduces the different forms of imaging and give examples of how we can use them to ask important questions in psychiatry and neurology.
