How deep can the insights that functional imaging might offer really go?
All functional imaging can tell us now is that a few hundred million of them in various areas become more active at certain times.
I'm not sure that functional imaging is actually looking at the mind.
The brain activity was measured with functional magnetic resonance imaging.
The future of present functional imaging is proposed to be akin to that of computers as in the 1960s.
Functional imaging enables, for example, the processing of information by centers in the brain to be visualized directly.
P can potentially provide information on bone density and structure, as well as functional imaging of the brain.
Now, researchers have a new noninvasive method, functional magnetic resonance imaging, for studying the live human brain at work.
At least that is the judgment of the researchers who track increased blood flow with brain scans called functional magnetic resonance imaging.
Functional imaging allows it to investigate which parts of the brain are implicated in a specific task, like hearing sounds or generating language.
