Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Echoencephalography involves using ultrasound to create images of the brain and can be used to determine the presence of a centrally located mass. Computed tomography and myelogram are imaging tests that use different technology and are not typically used to image the brain. Electroencephalography is a test that measures the electrical activity of the brain and is not used to image the brain for masses.
