Solution

The statement that is not true for FMRI imaging is d) It has higher temporal resolution than MEG.

Here's why:

a) True. FMRI measures the metabolic activity in the brain by detecting changes associated with blood flow. This technique relies on the fact that cerebral blood flow and neuronal activation are coupled.

b) True. FMRI is generally cheaper than PET scans because it does not require the production and injection of radioactive tracers, which are used in PET scans.

c) True. FMRI has a higher spatial resolution than PET scans, allowing for more detailed images of the brain.

d) False. MEG (Magnetoencephalography) actually has a higher temporal resolution than FMRI. This means MEG can measure brain activity in real-time, while FMRI has a delay.

e) True. FMRI measures the impact of oxygen flow on the properties of hydrogen atoms. This is known as the BOLD (Blood Oxygen Level Dependent) signal.
