  • detects changes in the blood oxygenation and flow that occur as a result of neural activity in specific parts of the brain
  • When a brain area is more active it consumes more oxygen and to meet increased demand, blood flow is directed there.
  • produces 3D images showing which parts of the brain are involved in a particular mental process and this has important implication for our understanding of localisation of function
