Roskies	Are Neuroimages Like Photographs of the Brain?	2007	13	.pdf	application/pdf	5606	279	50	While neuroimaging remains an important source of scientific evidence, proper interpretation of brain images is much more complex than it appears. neuroscientists familiar with neuroimaging techniques are not apt to misapprehend the evidential status of brain images in the ways I suggest, although both theory and empirical studies confirm a fundamental relation between brain activity and blood flow, our current understanding I have argued thus far that functional neuroimaging is unlike photography in that it does not let us directly see visual properties of the brain; understand what information is carried by an MR image, we must understand what other tasks, activity, or extraneous factors could result in changes in brain activity without distinguishable differences in the resulting image, and they highlight the difficulties in figuring out what First, the subtraction images generated by neuroimaging studies are belief-opaque: one cannot infer the comparison tasks	./cache/work_edknbjlqrfc7xotfhwswxsnmqi.pdf	./txt/work_edknbjlqrfc7xotfhwswxsnmqi.txt
