  "abstract": "Firing neurons generate action potentials that propagate along axons to transmit signals supporting cognitive functions. These electrical currents generate magnetic fields, yet direct detection of these neuronal magnetic fields by MRI remains elusive. This Mini Review investigates why this goal has been proven difficult to achieve and whether an emerging approach, quantum sensing MRI, can overcome the challenge.",
