Abstract

Currently, with the advent of technological advancements, a number of tools and techniques are invented and modified to make the diagnosis of common and even rare diseases a lot more easier. These diagnostic tools make use of either machines or biologic studies and in some cases both. One of the most common ways to diagnose internal diseases is through imaging. In the laboratory, different types of sources are used to make the imaging possible; radiation, electricity, and magnetic fields are a few techniques. One type of imaging device that utilizes the magnetic and electrical sources of energy is what we call the MRI. Through some modifications in technological aspects, a sister technique was created out of the MRI and was called as FMRI. This paper focuses on differences between MRI and FMRI.

Keywords

MRI – Magnetic Resonance Imaging, FMRI – Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
