Functional Magnetic Resonance

A recent study by Georgia State University researchers suggests that frequent video game players reflect superior sensorimotor decision-making skills and enhanced activity in key regions of the brain as compared to non-players. For the findings, the authors used functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI).

An online journal named Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism conducted an observational study which stated that walnuts are the best cure to control hunger pangs. Researchers used the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to check how consuming walnuts affects the activity in the brain.

"I figured out how to put basically the functionality of an MRI machine into a wearable in the form of a ski hat," said founder Mary Lou Jepson.

People with anxiety fundamentally perceive the world differently, a new study has found, suggesting that they are not able to distinguish between safe or dangerous situations.

For the study, the researchers performed functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans of participants as they read a chapter of a book.

British scientists say they have found the best way yet to analyse the effects of smoking on the brain -- by taking functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans of people while they puff on e-cigarettes.

A new study suggests that brain circuits for reading may be in place earlier than expected in children. Using a scan called functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure brain activity in children, researchers found that reading-related brain networks were in place by age seven.
