For almost three decades, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been one of the main tools in brain research. Yet a new study published in Nature Neuroscience fundamentally challenges the ...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a well-reputed imaging modality for clinically managing patients who suffer from neurological disorders. It enables the discovery of macro- and microstructural ...

What goes on in your brain while watching a movie? MIT neuroscientists have made remarkable progress in answering this question by creating the most detailed functional brain map to date. By observing ...

Illinois engineers fused ultrafast imaging with smart algorithms to peek at living brain chemistry, turning routine MRIs into metabolic microscopes. The system distinguishes healthy regions, grades ...

40% of functional magnetic resonance imaging reflect misleading blood flow and brain energy use, proposing improved diagnosis can be achieved from new methods.
