Solution
The correct option is A PET imaging
In PET scan, the radioactive tracer is used which allows the radiologist to see areas of brain clearly. The tracer travels to the brain through blood and its concentration in various parts is monitored. A PET scan measures important body functions, such as blood flow, oxygen use, and sugar (glucose) metabolism, to help doctors evaluate how well organs and tissues are functioning. Thus, the correct answer is option A.
