| c-Fos expression also has disadvantages. It is a postmortem technique, so the same rat cannot be repeatedly tested. Also, only a subset of activated neurons may be visualized, because some cells do not express c-Fos when activated. Although there are other ways to record or visualize neural activity that avoid these problems, most are impractical when applied to high MFs. Electrophysiological recordings using surface or indwelling metallic electrodes are confounded either by magnetic attraction or by induced currents. Functional MRI, in addition to having relatively low-resolution in small animals, is obviously confounded by the presence of the MF if the field itself is inducing neuronal activity. Other methods of measuring brain activity, such as brain imaging by PET or voltage-sensitive dyes, or neurotransmitter release by microdialysis, would be prohibitively cumbersome to conduct within the confines of the magnet’s bore. | | c-Fos expression also has disadvantages.
