Week 1: Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Fundamentals
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is probably the most influential and most flexible current means of imaging the human brain. It features a vast number of separable contrast mechanisms, and a near ideal combination of non-invasiveness, safety, resolution and metric accuracy. However, it is extraordinarily expensive and has limited temporal resolution, especially for functional studies
