The discovery of functional MRI (fMRI) methodology in 1991 marked a significant advancement in neuroscience. This non-invasive, high-speed, and sensitive technique allows for the observation of localized blood flow changes linked to brain activity. Researchers worldwide have embraced fMRI, redirecting their studies to leverage this revolutionary tool. This volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series provides an accessible introduction to the history, concepts, challenges, and controversies surrounding fMRI, authored by a pioneer in the field. Peter Bandettini shares insights from nearly three decades of research, covering essentials such as other brain imaging methods, sources of fMRI contrasts, basic methodology, experiment design strategies, and data processing. A dedicated chapter addresses major controversies, outlining twenty-six challenges that have influenced fMRI research. Bandettini also presents the four essential pillars of fMRI: technology, methodology, interpretation, and applications. This work serves as both a guide for curious nonexperts and a reference for experienced and novice fMRI scientists alike.
