Understanding Brain Activity for Better Treatment

The process of assessing brain activity through imaging reveals vital insights into its functionality. Similar to the radiation exposure from a head CT, this imaging allows for the evaluation of living brain tissue, categorizing activity levels as good, too low, or too high. This information is crucial for tailoring treatments, whether it's calming an overactive brain in conditions like PTSD, OCD, or addressing cognitive effects post-COVID. Additionally, low brain activity can arise from factors like toxins or the aftereffects of general anesthesia, underscoring the importance of recognizing these changes. Promoting brain health should stem from a better understanding of its operations, leading to proactive measures for cognitive well-being.
