This article appears in 2013's second edition of Argument, which is officially released tomorrow (07.03.13). The technique of PET was replaced with the more flexible technique of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), which allowed scientists to study people's brains without the use of the risky radioactive tracers, and to conduct longer studies that collected more data and yielded more In the book “Out of our Heads,” the philosopher Alva Noë wrote, ”It is easy to overlook the fact that images… made by fMRI and PET are not actually pictures of the brain in action. What he calls “neuromania”, nevertheless it seems to me that he is right to find the unacceptably impoverished notion of the human being hatched in neuroscience departments, and those disciplines held hostage by functional magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, both lacking in depth and credibility. Mario Beauregard's book makes special notice of the placebo effect in chapter six entitled, “Toward a Non-materialist Science of Mind.” In that chapter, he details the research being conducted using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and describes what it is and why it is being employed in this kind of research: “A magnetic resonance imaging unit is a huge cylindrical magnet that encloses a research volunteer or patient and creates a strong field. 2013, 14:29 doi:10.1186/1745-6215-14-29. We use cognitive tests (assessing memory, reasoning, and comprehension abilities), functional MRI scans (performing tests of cognitive function while the subject is receiving an MRI scan), and white matter maps constructed using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) scans. I've reposted it here with added links, Modern neuroscience methods like functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) have allowed us to move on from indiscriminately cutting bits of brain tissue out and seeing what happens, to seeing how the brain works in action. Handbook of Functional MRI Data Analysis Russell A. New data, primarily from studies using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), have provided support for parallel roles of cognitive structures and movement structures such as the cerebellum. Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Second Edition. My heart is no longer in this venture, as I've already discussed scientism in another recent post, and because I'm working on my book and am hellishly busy.
