- MRIAfter conducting research in function brain imaging at the University of California, at Irvine (UCI), Dr. Stubblefield began utilizing a sophisticated new brain scanning tool called “SPECT” or Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography in his clinical practice. SPECT machines look like CT scanners or an MRI machines, but rather than taking pictures of bones and brain tissue, SPECT cameras take pictures of brain activity. Using a color spectrum, various levels of activity within the brain can be measured and reproduced in a picture of the brain that shows which areas of the brain are normal, overactive, and/or underactive. Because we know which areas of the brain are associated with which emotional states and/or behaviors, we can get some important information and even objective evidence that emotional imbalances and/or behavioral dysfunctions are occurring.
