there be less random reorganization of tracts leading to a much better neurocognitive outcome? Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) When a stimulus produces an increase in local neuronal activity, thus increasing local blood flow and venous blood oxygenation, a blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) effect is found. fMRI utilizes this effect and detects the local increase in signal (BOLD contrast) to demonstrate activation of certain areas in the brain. Fetal fMRI has been used to evaluate response
