		Ogawa was honored for his seminal work in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) done in the Biological Computation Research department at Bell Labs in the late 1980s.
		Ogawa's fMRI technology in action: The three overhead images to the left show brain areas such as the primary visual cortex and the lateral geniculate nucleus that are activated by visual stimulus.
		Ogawa retired from Bell Labs in 2001 after a 33-year career in which he also studied the structure and function of proteins by high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and was a pioneer in the development of in vivo NMR, which is now known as magnetic resonance spectroscopy and used clinically.

		Seiji Ogawa, director of the Ogawa Laboratories for Brain Function in Tokyo and one of this year's winners of a Gairdner Award for medical research, gave a lecture about functional MRI (fMRI): fMRI works in a similar way to traditional MRI but can provide more information about brain function, not just brain anatomy.
		Ogawa also discovered that there is a functional network in the brain: performing one task would activate different parts of the brain instead of just one specific area.
		Ogawa's work using fMRI shows that even simple tasks require the use of several different and seemingly unrelated parts of the brain.

		Ogawa has tried to contact him through email and has called his portable telephone, but doesn't get any response.
		Ogawa had wanted Hashimoto to win the IWGP heavyweight title so they could do a double title match (Ogawa is NWA champ), but that wasn't going to happen when Hashimoto wasn't even scheduled to get a title shot, so Hashimoto is risking something more important than the belt.
		Ogawa realizes being involved in such a match will help his career, and doesn't want to fight against Hashimoto for the rest of his life, but basically he's teaming with Hashimoto because his teacher Inoki wants him to.

	2003(19th)_2
		Dr. Ogawa, Seiji discovered the principle upon which the field of functional and physiological imaging of the human body, particularly the human brain, is based.
		Dr. Ogawa succeeded in using the magnetic susceptibility change of blood hemoglobin that occurs when it binds to oxygen and in detecting the MRI image contrast change that arises from the localized decrease in blood deoxyhemoglobin concentration in physiologically active tissues in rats.
		He also demonstrated that this imaging method, today termed as BOLD (Blood Oxygenation Level Dependent) contrast method according to his nomenclature, enables a new noninvasive functional measurement of human brain activity by first applying the technique to the imaging of visual responses in the human visual cortex.

	The Scientist : Magnetic Resonance Imaging Captures Brain In Action
		Ogawa used the magnetic characteristics of oxy- and deoxyhemoglobin to study major blood vessels.
		One major difference between this early work and the current studies is that Ogawa was imaging relatively static structures.
		Previous work, such as Ogawa's studies, had shown that deoxyhemoglobin dropped the signal, but here was the possibility that oxyhemoglobin would cause the signal to go up--and that the change was measurable.

	Alzforum: News
		Although little more that a decade old, fMRI already has an established pantheon of "giants in the field." Seiji Ogawa, one of these giants, was the first to observe that when rodents breathe, 100 percent oxygen-diminished contrast is observed in brain images acquired with T2*-weighted signal.
		Based on prior work, most notably by Thulborn, Ogawa was correct in assuming that the change in signal contrast was due to a decrease in deoxyhemoglobin levels coursing through the vasculature.
		Although Ogawa coined the term BOLD—Blood Oxygen Level Dependent—to account for the observed increase in blood vessel signal, MRI is essentially blind to blood oxygen levels, per se; deoxyhemoglobin, the true source of signal change, did not, apparently, lend itself to a snappy eponym.

	New magnetic imaging technique can show brain activity
		In addition to Ogawa, Tank, and Ugurbil, the other authors of the PNAS paper are Ravi Menon, Jutta Ellermann, Seong-Gi Kim, and Hellmut Merkle, all research scientists at the Center for Magnetic Resonance Research.
		Hemoglobin without oxygen--known as deoxyhemoglobin--is paramagnetic, meaning that when it is placed in a magnetic field, it slightly increases the strength of the field in its vicinity.
		Ogawa first observed this phenomenon in animals in 1989.

	Magnetic Resonance Imagin... - From Structure to Functio...
		In 1990, Seiji Ogawa of AT&T's Bell Laboratories reported that, in studies with animals, deoxygenated hemoglobin, when placed in a magnetic field, would increase the strength of the field in its vicinity, while oxygenated hemoglobin would not.
		Ogawa showed in animal studies that a region containing a lot of deoxygenated hemoglobin will slightly distort the magnetic field surrounding the blood vessel, a distortion that shows up in a magnetic resonance image.
		In 1992, for example, a number of researchers, including Ogawa, John W. Belliveau at Massachusetts General Hospital, and Peter Bandettini at the Medical College of Wisconsin, published results of studies of the brain's response to sensory stimulation using functional MRI techniques.

		Ogawa observed the physiological-dependent signals in MRI and demonstrated ‘blood-oxygenation-level-dependent' (BOLD) signal contrast in MRI, which means that the technique detects brain functions through the stimulation caused by the flow of blood in the brain cells.
		The technique is being extensively employed in biological and medical sciences such as neurobiology, psychology and neurology and in the fields of clinical medicine as a diagnostic and research tool.
