Use of magnetic resonance can watch brain memory channel

United States University of California at Irvine campus, 10 August releases, school researchers with the latest inventions of technology, see the human brain to the memory area of a channel, the discovery will help in early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (Alzheimer 's).

The communiqué said that with this new technology, researchers using NMR instrument, to be responsible for the brain and memory in a channel-definition images.

Researchers on a group of 18-year-old to 89-year-old volunteers for a one-year test, satisfactory results.

Responsible for the study of neural biologists stark said that for a long time, researchers have been trying to adopt non-invasive method of direct observation of the channel in the human brain, and now finally achieved this goal.

In the past, researchers can only be achieved through Anatomy laboratory mice or primates brain method to see the channel.

Stark, older, degradation of the human brain will gradually, thus affecting memory.

Through direct observation of the middle of this memory channel that medical staff can determine beiguanchazhe memory degradation degree, which will contribute to the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.
