If you’re dealing with persistent, unexplained symptoms like sharp pain, chronic numbness or noticeable muscle weakness, ...

An intense international effort to improve the resolution of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for studying the human brain has culminated in an ultra-high resolution 7 Tesla scanner that records up to ...

Essentially, a brain scan is a picture of the inside of the skull. They’re typically obtained by technicians using either a ...

There are many reasons why a 79-year-old man might need to get an MRI scan of his brain, some benign, some more concerning.

A scientific team supported in part by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has developed a new, ultra-high-resolution brain imaging system that can reconstruct microscopic brain structures that ...

“Healthier bodies with more muscle mass and less hidden belly fat are more likely to have healthier, youthful brains,” said ...

Hospital MRI scanners, using 3 Tesla magnets, provide poor spatial resolution in brain imaging. More recent 7T MRIs are better but used mainly in the rare research lab. Scientists have now ...

A wearable system that measures the brain's electrical activity can show how brain circuits are affected in people with MS, a ...

Researchers have found that a specific body profile — higher muscle mass combined with a lower visceral fat to muscle ratio — ...

Scientists discovered that more muscle and less hidden abdominal fat are linked to a younger biological brain age. Deep visceral fat appeared to accelerate brain aging, while muscle mass offered a ...
