Not a "brain scan" in the usual manner: It was a conventional MRI, not a functional MRI. You don't see blood flow that indicates brain activity that you do with a fMRI.

A more honest title would be "MRI image of child being born" or something along those lines.


Did you read the fine print under the photo? "Property of the TSA" =)


Really fascinating photo. Look at those huge eyes.
