Abstract
The tools of neuroimaging and neurophysiology have recently made significant advances. Each technique delivers unique insights into the medical basis of neuropsychiatric disease. For these tools to augment personalized medicine, multiple neuroimaging and neurophysiological techniques must further mature while incorporating genomic information. This chapter is provided to create a foundation for understanding the major methods of neuroimaging and neurophysiology.
