Overview

Neuroimaging encompasses the structural and functional imaging techniques used to visualize the brain and spinal cord, providing non-invasive insight into the central nervous system in health and disease. Structural modalities, principally magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT), depict neural anatomy and reveal lesions, supporting the detection and localization of central nervous system abnormalities and the diagnosis of conditions such as neurosarcoidosis and cerebrovascular infarction. Imaging of the spinal axis extends these methods to the cord and its vasculature, including the assessment of perimedullary and other spinal vascular abnormalities. Functional and physiological approaches complement structural assessment: positron emission tomography (PET) maps metabolic and molecular activity, while functional MRI and analyses of functional connectivity characterize how distributed brain regions interact, an approach applied to network-level dysfunction in disorders such as dementia. Together these techniques serve several core purposes in neuroscience and clinical neurology: localizing lesions with anatomical precision, establishing or refining diagnoses of neurological disease, and characterizing alterations in connectivity and network organization that may not be evident on conventional structural images. By integrating views of anatomy, metabolism, and connectivity across the brain and spinal cord, neuroimaging links observable changes in the nervous system to underlying pathology and function, informing both diagnostic evaluation and mechanistic understanding of neurological and neurosurgical conditions.
