Abstract(in English) Recently, one of the main issues in the field of brain reasearch has been to clarify the functional neuro-connectivity in the brain. However, the problem is that any modality that can dilectly measure the functional neuro-connectivity has not been developed. In this study, in order to investigate a possibility of functional measurement by neuromagnetic resonance imaging, we discussed an influence of a phase of neural magnetic field on MR signals detected by using spin-lock imaging. By simulation and phantom studies modeling the neuronal magnetic fields, we showed that MR signals vary depending on a phase of the externally applied oscillating magnetic fields. This result suggests that the neuromagnetic resonance imaging is promising to measure functional neuro-connectivity.
