These appear to be CNS oriented, although I certainly could imagine functional neuroimaging of the peripheral nerves. For relatively nondestructive testing there, I've worked most with EMG/NCV, and wonder if these could be/are correlated. [[User:Howard C. Berkowitz|Howard C. Berkowitz]] 23:21, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

:I think (non-)invasive vs. (non-)destructive might merit a set of subarticles or some collective treatment like [[Sensitivity and specificity]]. [[Cerebral angiography]] is certainly related, and at the cellular level, it could be argued that it fits in here. At larger scales, however, it is typically treated as a separate subject. Peripheral and autonomous NS are fully in here, though a bit less prominent and less widely used than imaging of the CNS. --[[User:Daniel Mietchen|Daniel Mietchen]] 00:05, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Histology

Please also briefly mention histology and the history of brain imaging, including classical staining (Golgi, Ramón y Cajal) and still widely used invasive techniques (e.g. cryosectioning, or tracers like 3H thymidine or DiI). -- Daniel Mietchen 13:51, 15 August 2008 (CDT)

Nondestructive, noninvasive, invasive, destructive

Rather than simply emphasizing in vivo in the lede, I wonder if these distinctions should be made more clear, and even split out to subarticles. Is neuropathology or neurohistopathology a better name for the destructive?

Is this to be resticted to the neurons themselves, or would cerebral angiography be at least related?

These appear to be CNS oriented, although I certainly could imagine functional neuroimaging of the peripheral nerves. For relatively nondestructive testing there, I've worked most with EMG/NCV, and wonder if these could be/are correlated. Howard C. Berkowitz 23:21, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
