"Brain imaging offers a fantastic opportunity to study how people respond to political information," said Jonathan D. Cohen, director of the Center for the Study of Brain, Mind and Behavior at Princeton.
Now that functional brain imaging techniques have become available to study mind/brain relations, there is a new promise of understanding individual differences in learning and memory in terms of corresponding differences in brain activity.
"This experiment is a brain imaging experiment.
This should be kept in mind when imaging small dim objects in close proximity to brighter objects.
Another limitation of FDG-PET that must be kept in mind when imaging patients with colorectal cancer is the relative insensitivity for detection of mucinous tumors likely due to the paucicellularity of these tumors[ 37 ].
This has to be kept in mind during imaging studies in order to rule out intracavitary thrombus: failure to view all the lobes or incomplete visualization of a lobe may account for underdiagnosis of LAA thrombosis.
To achieve this he subjects Kevin, his relatively unknown star, to a weeks-long series of mind-imaging tests that measure the actor's responses to different psychological stimuli.
Yet, with advances in neural engineering, brain imaging and pervasive neurotechnology, the mind might no longer be such unassailable fortress.
Because he cannot hold still long enough for brain imaging, he cannot offer researchers pictures of his mind in action.
Of course, one should bear in mind that spatial resolution of electrophysiologically based localization methods is inferior to modern brain imaging techniques.
In fact, Evans argues, our two minds constantly battle for attention in our decision-making process, and functional brain imaging provides evidence that different regions of our cerebral cortex are involved in either analytical reasoning or intuition.
