The world’s most powerful MRI scanner has delivered its first images of human brains, reaching a new level of precision that is hoped will shed more light on our mysterious minds — and the illnesses that haunt them. Researchers at France’s Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) first used the machine to scan a pumpkin back in 2021. But health authorities recently gave them the green light to scan humans, Agence France Presse reported.

The worlds most powerful MRI scanner, Iseult, located in Frances Plateau de Saclay, has captured its first images of human brains. With an 11.7 tesla magnetic field, ten times more powerful than hospital MRIs, it reveals unprecedented detail, potentially advancing brain research and treatment for diseases like Alzheimers and Parkinsons. While not for clinical use yet, its insights may inform future medical practices.

In the coming months, a new crop of healthy patients will be recruited to get their brains scanned. The machine will not be used on patients with conditions for several years.
