Fmri scans have allowed us to make great advances in our understand of the roles of different regions of the brain. Suggest why this may be and give some examples of areas of research which you think might benefit from this study method

FMRI helps to measure and map the brains activities.

Explanation:

FMRI refers to Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It helps to measure and map the brain's activity.

FMRI scan works by looking at the blood flow in the brain to detect areas of activity. Glucose is the main source of energy in the brain,but not stored in the brain. So when parts of the brain need energy o perform action, more blood flow in to transport more glucose.

FMRI scan helps doctors to map out the brain before surgery and provides more information about individual brain to prevent serious injury before the surgery.

It also helps doctors monitor a progressive condition like dementia to study how the disease progresses.
