  a. It requires more processing time than PET scans, so it is more widely available.
  b. It is more effective than the PET scan in measuring brain activity that occurs rapidly.
  c. It does not provide precise information about the timing of various brain activities.
  d. It produces images that are roughly comparable to the ERP technique.
