“One cubic millimeter of cerebral cortex contains roughly 50,000 neurons, each of which establishes approximately 6,000 synapses with neighbouring cells” [36]. Thus any attempt to shed light on brain function using MRI or NMR will necessarily have to apply MR microscopy. A number of aspects, especially in brain research, are amenable to MR, especially those associated with possible brain interventions, and those involved in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of the brain. We briefly consider these aspects next.
