In a discovery that could reshape how we view and understand the human brain, researchers have successfully passed a laser ...

To test the limits, the researchers started by firing a powerful, ultrafast laser into the side of a volunteer’s head. The ...

Scientists have developed a new technique for non-invasive brain imaging – and it involves shining light all the way through ...

Light typically only reaches the outermost layers of the brain, about 40 mm deep—enough to study the surface of the brain, but not deeper regions involved in critical functions like memory, emotion, ...

For decades, scientists have used near-infrared light to study the brain in a noninvasive way. This optical technique, known as fNIRS (functional near-infrared spectroscopy), measures how light is ...

Scientists in Scotland have developed a method to shine light through the human head to scan the brain. It may lead to ...

Illinois engineers fused ultrafast imaging with smart algorithms to peek at living brain chemistry, turning routine MRIs into ...

New research shows that AI can detect cancerous tumors in MRI brain scans that doctors often miss because of how small they ...

A new technology that uses clinical MRI machines to image metabolic activity in the brain could give researchers and ...

Britt McHenry is opening up about a personal health issue. The Fox Nation commentator and ESPN personality took to Twitter on Thursday to reveal she has a brain tumor. "I was trying to keep this ...

Glioma is a broad category of brain and spinal cord tumors that come from glial cells – brain cells that support nerve cells. The symptoms, prognosis, and treatment of a glioma depend on the ...
