Genes are segments of DNA located on chromosomes. A gene mutation is defined as an alteration in the sequence of nucleotides in DNA. This change can affect a single nucleotide pair or larger gene segments of a chromosome. DNA consists of a polymer of nucleotides joined together. During protein synthesis, DNA is transcribed into RNA and then translated to produce proteins. Altering nucleotide sequences most often results in nonfunctioning proteins. Mutations cause changes in the genetic code that lead to genetic variation and the potential to develop the disease. Gene mutations can be generally categorized into two types: point mutations and base-pair insertions or deletions.

expeople1 [14]
The answer is "PET scan" or "PET-CT". 

PET scan or positron emission tomography uses the technology behind conventional CT scans but performs to quantify the function in specific parts of organs (i.e. brain). The patient will be given a positron emitting substance most commonly fluorodeoxyglucose or FDG via intravenous injection. After which, the patient will go to the PET machine and the PET machine will measure the positron emitted throughout the body. Positron is well correlated to the function of a specific part of an organ.
