Scientists Successfully Beam Light Through An Entire Human Head, Opening Doors To Revolutionary Brain Imaging
GLASGOW — Doctors may be a step closer to peering deep into your brain to spot strokes or tumors without expensive MRI machines or invasive procedures. That’s because researchers at the University of ...
Detecting photons through an entire adult head explores the limits of photon transport in the brain, for access to regions of the brain currently inaccessible with noninvasive optical brain imaging.
The human brain is a marvel of nature, a labyrinth of neurons and synapses that dictates every aspect of our behavior, thoughts, and feelings. Yet, despite its critical role in our lives, it remains ...
