your lucky.
but yes MY brain scan was a head CT scan. i had forgotten the term i recieved. but fMRI is what they do the SPECT scan with. they the people who i was SUPPOSED to do the scan with say they would test me working on something 30 min or so before the scan. something like a puzzle or perhaps a thinking game. and then they would scan my brain. and then scan it maybe 30 min AGAIN afterwards. something of that sort.
i actually wished i could have gotten it.
