The backpack uses non-invasive techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to scan and stimulate the brain. The fMRI measures changes in blood flow to different areas of the brain, while TMS uses magnetic fields to stimulate specific regions.
The backpack allows for brain studies to be conducted in real-world settings, providing more accurate and natural results compared to traditional lab studies. It also allows for a larger and more diverse sample size as participants can be studied in their own environment.
Yes, the backpack uses non-invasive techniques and is safe for use on healthy individuals. However, as with any medical equipment, it is important for trained professionals to operate the backpack to ensure proper usage and safety protocols.
Yes, the backpack has the potential to be used for medical purposes such as diagnosing and treating brain disorders. It can also aid in the development of personalized treatments for individuals with neurological conditions.
The results from the backpack have been found to be comparable to traditional brain studies conducted in a laboratory setting. However, the ability to conduct studies in real-world environments may provide more accurate and natural results. Further research is needed to fully assess the accuracy of the backpack's results.
