Understanding brain function is essential for advancing our comprehension of human cognition, behavior, and neurological disorders. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) stands out as a powerful tool for exploring brain function, providing detailed insights into its structure and physiology. Combining MRI technology with electrophysiological recording system can enhance the comprehension of brain functionality through synergistic effects.

Purpose: To observe the growth and resolution of decompression gas bubbles in the spinal cord of live rats in real time using MRI.
Methods: We constructed an MRI-compatible pressure chamber system to visualize gas bubble dynamics in deep tissues in real time. The system pressurizes and depressurizes rodents inside an MRI scanner and monitors their respiratory rate, heart rate, and body temperature while providing gaseous anesthesia under pressure during the experiments.

Modulation or stimulation of the nerves supplying the lower urinary tract is a possible treatment option for dysfunction of the lower urinary tract, pelvic floor and rectum if conservative or minimally invasive treatment approaches fail. This overview shows the possibilities and limitations of sacral neuromodulation, sacral deafferentation with sacral anterior root stimulation and conus deafferentation.Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is a procedure for the treatment of refractory pelvic floor dysfunction of various origins (idiopathic, neurogenic or post-operative), such as overactive bladder, non-obstructive retention and faecal incontinence.

Objective: Functional MRI (fMRI) can be employed to assess neuronal activity in the central nervous system. However, investigating the spinal cord using fMRI poses several technical difficulties. Enhancing the fMRI signal intensity in the spinal cord can improve the visualization and analysis of different neural pathways, particularly those involved in bladder function.
