  Brain scans made easy (May 11)
  http://physicsweb.org/article/news/8/5/5
   Magnetic measurements of brain activity could be free from noise in the
   future thanks to a new helmet-like device developed by medical
   physicists at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in the US.
   Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is the only technique that can directly
   measure neuronal activity in the brain, but it is plagued by background
   noise that interferes with signals from the brain itself. The new helmet
   could provide much more accurate information on brain function (P
   Volegov et al. 2004 Phys. Med. Biol. 49 2117).
