A "functional" Magnetic Resonance Imaging scan shows how a brain reacts under certain test conditions. In a child with an autism spectrum disorder, for example, researchers want to know which areas light up when they answer questions. Regions of their brain are then compared with those of typically developing children who were asked the same questions. The differences will help researchers better understand how autistic brains behave.
It's a normal structural MRI scan. If it were functional, there would be activations.

That wasn't even an fMRI scan. Who named this video?
