Provide a static image of the brain at a specific point in time. Allow for localization of brain function

2
New cards

Limitations of localizing brain function

Reductionism. Cannot assess if one part of the brain is responsible for a behavior or cognitive process. Only associated.

3
New cards

Function Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI)

Creates a dynamic record of metabolic activities overtime based on changes in neural activity.

4
New cards

Neural activity

Increases blood flow and oxygen levels

5

Limitations fo fMRI

Lack of precision
