Computerized Axial Tomography (CAT) – The 1970s and 80s saw several major breakthroughs in brain scanning technology. CAT scans (usually called CT scans in modern usage) are based on x-ray ...

A colorized computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain revealing blood vessels in the brain. A new study finds microplastics accumulate at higher levels in human brains than in the liver and kidneys.

On 22 CT scans and eight MRI scans, ... of the folds--or convolutions--that massively increase the surface area of a normal human brain (indicated by white arrows).

Using CT scans of ancient and modern human skulls, the researchers created digital brain reconstructions, based on the shape of the inner surface of each skull’s braincase.

In contrast, modern humans have evolved a unique pattern, says lead researcher Philipp Gunz: The overall shape of the brain probably does not have too much significance in and of itself toward brain ...
