fMRI Offers Insight Into An Infants Brain
New research challenges the previously held belief that infants' brains don't divide into left-brain/right-brain dominance until puberty. // A new study finds the brain's left hemisphere plays the leading role in processing most language functions beginning almost immediately after birth. ..Researchers are using functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI, to study infant brain activity in res...Brain Is More Active While Hiding The Truth, Reveals fMRI Imaging
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can help identify if an individual is lying much better when compared to the traditional polygraph tests. // The test further highlights certain specific brain regions that light up when a person tells a lie. Researchers from Temple University Hospital in Philadelphia have conducted the interesting research. The results appear in the latest issue of Ra...fMRI Prior to surgery Could Help In Outcome Of Tumor Surgery
Studies have shown that mapping the brain areas preoperative brain could effectively alter the outcome of tumor surgery. ....A study that is to appear in the September issue of Radiology, states that by systematically mapping the motor// and language areas of the brain with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), could help the surgeons in pinpointing the brain tumors more effectively, and...
