Neuroimaging or brain imaging is the use of various techniques to either directly or indirectly image the structure, function, or pharmacology of the nervous system. It is a relatively new discipline within medicine, neuroscience, and psychology.^[1] Physicians who specialize in the performance and interpretation of neuroimaging in the clinical setting are neuroradiologists.

Neuroimaging falls into two broad categories:

• Structural imaging, which deals with the structure of the nervous system and the diagnosis of gross (large scale) intracranial disease (such as a tumor) and injury.
• Functional imaging, which is used to diagnose metabolic diseases and lesions on a finer scale (such as Alzheimer's disease) and also for neurological and cognitive psychology research and building brain-computer interfaces.

Functional imaging enables, for example, the processing of information by centers in the brain to be visualized directly. Such processing causes the involved area of the brain to increase metabolism and "light up" on the scan. One of the more controversial uses of neuroimaging has been researching "thought identification" or mind-reading.

Journal of Neuroscience and Clinical Research welcomes submissions with in the field of Neurology, Neurophysiology, Neuroscience, Nervous System, etc. Unsolicited manuscripts including research articles, reviews, commentaries, opinion articles, short communications, editorials, Letter to Editor, and others will also be considered for publication and should be submitted either online or through the mail.

Manuscripts with relevance to the scope can be submitted to our Email: neurosci@eclinicalsci.com or neurology@peerjournal.org or Online Submission at Neuroscience
