## Abstract ## Purpose To determine whether consistent regions of activity could be observed in the lumbar spinal cord of single subjects with spinβecho functional MRI (fMRI) if several repeated experiments were performed within a single imaging session. ## Materials and Methods Repeated fMRI ex
Magnetic resonance imaging is highly sensitive in revealing CNS abnormalities associated with several neurological conditions, but lacks specificity for their pathological substrates. In addition, MRI does not allow evaluation of the presence and extent of damage in regions that appear normal on con
