Types of Neuroplasticity

Structural Neuroplasticity

  • It is the brain՚s ability to change its neuronal connections.
  • New neurons are constantly produced and integrated into the central nervous system.
  • To study the structural alterations of the human brains.
    • Researchers nowadays use multiple cross-sectional imaging methods.
    • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) .
    • Computerized tomography (CT) formerly known as CT scan.
  • The effects of various internal or external stimuli on the brain՚s anatomical reorganization are studied.
  • Examples are changes of grey matter proportion or the synaptic strength in the brain.
