D)  magnetic resonance imaging and functional magnetic resonance imaging

Positron Emission Tomography

A nuclear medicine functional imaging technique used to observe metabolic processes in the body as an aid to the diagnosis of disease.

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

A neuroimaging technique that measures and maps brain activity based on changes in blood flow.

Brain Activity
