41、ing techniques have been missing some of the earliest steps in brain activity because those changes are subtle and are masked by reactions that happen seconds later, Israeli scientists say. The imaging techniques positron emission tomography scanning and magnetic resonance imaging, known as PET and

42、functional M. R. I. scans are used prominently in studies of brain activity. The most active brain areas appear to light up on the scans as specific tasks are performed. The two techniques do not measure nerve-cell activity directly; they measure the extra flow of blood that surges to the most activ

43、e brain areas. Researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, have monitored these changes in blood flow in anesthetized cats by removing parts of the skull and observing how the nerve cells in activated regions fuel their activities by rapidly removing oxygen from nearby red b

44、lood cells. This rapid uptake of oxygen, made evident by visible changes in the color of the red cells, proves that early oxygen transfer gives these neurons the energy to do their work, the researchers said. They also found that subtle changes in blood flow began significantly earlier than was dete

45、cted by PET and functional M. R. I. scans, which lack sufficient resolution and do not form their images quickly enough to follow such rapid changes. Dr. Amiram Grinvald published the findings in the Journal Science. “The initial event is very localized and will be missed if you dont look for it soo

46、n enough and use the highest possible resolution,“ Dr. Grinvald said. “ Now people are beginning to use our results with other imaging methods. “ Working on the exposed brain lets researchers follow electrical activity and the accompanying blood flow in greater detail than is possible by using indir

47、ect imaging methods that track neural activity through the skull. However, opportunities for open-skull studies of humans are limited to some kinds of neurosurgery, and researchers must mostly rely on PET and functional M. R. I. images for studies linking behavior with specific brain activity. By di

48、rectly observing exposed cat brains and in similar work with a few human cases, Dr. Grinvald and his associates have been able to observe the first evidence of electrical activity and other changes in brain cells after a light has been seen or a limb moved. The newest research showed that it took th

49、ree seconds or more after an event for the flow of blood to increase to an area of the brain dealing with a stimulus. That is the blood-flow increase usually pictured in brain-function studies with PET or functional M. R. I techniques, the Israeli researchers said. However, the initial reaction observed in the Weizmann research by directly imaging the exposed brain the direct transfer of oxygen from blood cells to neurons occurred in the first-tenth of a second and
