Functional MRI (fMRI) utilizes changes in metabolic and hemodynamic signals in order to infer the underlying local changes in neuronal activity. fMRI signals are therefore an indirect measure of neuronal activity, with the involvement of intermediary processes of neurovascular coupling and MRI measurements. This chapter summarizes the current concepts surrounding the neuronal correlates of fMRI signals measured locally and the mechanisms by which neurovascular coupling is achieved. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2010.
