select match
blood test
creates cross - sectional images of brain structures
produces detailed images of the brain and spinal cord
withdraws cerebrospinal fluid for analysis
measures electrical activity of the brain

Explanation:

• Electroencephalography (EEG): It is a non - invasive test that records the electrical activity of the brain using electrodes placed on the scalp.
• Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): Uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to produce detailed images of the brain and spinal cord.
• Computed Tomography (CT): Creates cross - sectional images of the brain structures by using X - rays and computer processing.
• Lumbar puncture: Involves withdrawing cerebrospinal fluid from the spinal canal (usually in the lower back) for analysis.

Answer:

1. Measures electrical activity of the brain
2. Produces detailed images of the brain and spinal cord
3. Creates cross - sectional images of brain structures
4. Withdraws cerebrospinal fluid for analysis
