Abstract

The 2003 Nobel Prize in Medicine went to Paul Lauterbur and Sir Peter Mansfield for the invention of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the 1970s. Since its invention MRI has rapidly changed the world of medicine; there are currently more than 20,000 MRI scanners in the world and many millions of images are generated by them each year. In the early 1990s, Ogawa et al. (1992), Belliveau et al. (1991) and Kwong et al. (1992) showed that MRI could be used for the detection of brain function.
