MRI (magnetic resonace imaging) or CT (computed tomography) for soft-tissue or angiography studies; Nuclear Medicine, or PET scan (measures the uptake of tagged glucose) to see metabolic hostspots; fMRI (functional MRI) to watch as different parts of the brain activate.

Two words:

blueblack falcon


I leave the rest as an exercise for the student.


Edit:

Observation: falcon is to roost as synthesize telepathy is to ... coincidence? perhaps.
