Our DETECT-AF study uses an fMRI scanner to look at participants’ neural activity by measuring blood flow in the brain 🧠. BUT, before participants enter the real scanner, they will be asked to test out our mock scanner. In this post, Honours thesis student Emily Schreiner describes how and why a mock scanner is used before the real thing. If you are interested in participating in our DETECT-AF study, or are curious about fMRI, swipe through this post to find out more!
