brain map
Cerebral wiring diagram
A brain map is a visual representation of brain structure or activity, showing regions, neural pathways, or functional areas.
In neuroscience, brain mapping uses imaging techniques to chart how different parts of the brain connect and operate: Researchers created a brain map showing which regions activate during decision-making.
The term also appears in alternative medicine for diagrams purporting to link scalp zones to mental states.
