Imager
Definition: In the field of neuroimaging, an imager is a device records and visualizes (live) the spatial distribution of brain activity status (hemodynamic changes). Visualization typically occurs through acquisition software, presenting data in the form of diagrams, 3D models, or topographic maps to monitor the brain activity. They can be categorized as either mobile/wearable imagers or stationary/laboratory devices, depending on their portability.
