This manuscript provides valuable information on the neurodynamics of emotional processing while participants were watching movie clips. The methods and results were solid in deciphering the ...

The researchers then cut up the brain into many tiny slices and chemically analyzed genetic activity within about 900 precise areas. ... (fMRI) to capture their precise anatomical details.

The 1990s advent of fMRI, which measures blood flow as a proxy for brain activity, ... Instead of examining one slice of brain at a time, they can measure 40 slices, each divided into a 64 by 64 grid, ...

To reveal how the brain works, he thought, fMRI had to become much faster. Typically, fMRI acquires brain slices as complete images — a process that limits how quickly the method can gather data.

In fMRI, averaging more brain slices should strengthen, not weaken, the brain-activity signal, says Kim. Without enough data, he adds, background noise can look like brain activity.

Researchers have developed an innovative approach to studying brain connections using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Recently published in Cell Systems, this work introduces a new ...

When fMRI emerged in the 1990s, it revolutionized the field of human neuroscience. For the first time, scientists could watch the entire human brain at work without injecting subjects with a ...

Researchers claim fMRI can probe the workings of the brain as never before—revealing everything from when you tell a lie (read: interrogations) to how you fall in love (read: divorce court ...

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) captures coarse, colorful snapshots of the brain in action. While this specialized type of magnetic resonance imaging has transformed cognitive ...

By monitoring the brain's activity in real-time using fMRI technology, researchers were able to pinpoint a region they say can indicate a propensity in some to develop PTSD when exposed to trauma.
