What looked like a missing brain turned out to be a large air pocket compressing surrounding brain tissue inside the man's skull, according to a recent article from Live Science. 

Researchers used a high temporal resolution functional MRI (fMRI) data to examine the difference in the timing between brain activation areas by analyzing the task onset time of the statistical model shifted from the actual stimulation timing.

Exposure to air pollution during fetal life may severely alter a child's brain structure and pose long-term effects, according to a study published online Feb. 4 in Biological Psychiatry.  

According to researchers from the Alder Hey Children's NHS Foundation Trust in Liverpool, England, a volumetric CT head exam may be enough to identify non-accidental injuries without an additional x-ray.

A new study published in the Journal of Digital Imaging described how deep convolutional neural networks may improve MRI brain tumor segmentation.  

The University of Maryland and 20 other U.S. academic institutions will conduct the largest pediatric brain development study of its kind to analyze how actions, such as playing video games and sleeping, affect a child's brain development, according to a recent article by The Baltimore Sun.  

According to a recent University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) release, UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Oakland is the first hospital in the U.S. to receive the Precision Virtual Reality visualization platform for pediatric neurosurgery.  

According to a study recently published in the February issue of the American Journal of Roentgenology, researchers from South Korea have found an alternative to conventional MRI in pediatric patients who can't restrict their movement during imaging.
