In the article the characteristic features of the advanced technologies of visualization of brain structures in neurosurgical practice are considered: computer and magnetic resonance imaging, diffusion-weighted and perfusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography and spectroscopy. The necessity of using these methods with a diagnostic purpose and for a detailed study of the processes of the brain functioning is substantiated.
