highlighted brain scans

This image shows brain areas, highlighted in yellow, which are unusually active when subjects see foods they really like. Using a combination of numbers measuring activity in these brain regions, researchers are able to predict 68 percent of the foods they actually pick (out of a pair of two foods) when they come out of the scanner and choose between foods, one of which they will actually eat on the spot.
