Hi ruffy,

SPECT brain scans measure brain blood flow and metabolism; how the brain functions. They don't show the anatomy of the brain. I think a SPECT scan could show a brain injury by lack of blood flow. SPECT stands for Single Photon Emission Computer Tomography.

I have posted my brain scans on my blog if you are interested in seeing them. The surface views of my brain are in Chapter 11, and the active, internal views are in Chapter 13. My blog address is http://escapefromdepression.blogspot.com.

Just wanted to give you more information.
Thanks!
Caramel
