fMRI provides a way to measure and map brain activity. Brain cells communicate with each other using chemical and electrical signals. Generating thes signals uses energy which is provided by oxygen in the blood supply. When a brain area increases its activity, its enery needs also increase and this causes an increase in the supply of oxygenated blood to that area. fMRI provides a measure of brain activity by tracking the flow of blood to various regions of the brain. This increased blood flow is visualized as regions of intense color superimposed on an anatomical image of the participant’s brain.
