“…Using traditional blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) methods, fMRI activations due to odor stimulation have been reported in the olfactory bulb (OB) of rodents (Martin et al, 2007;Poplawsky and Kim, 2014;Schafer et al, 2005;Xu et al, 2000;Xu et al, 2005). However, in humans and non-human primates (NHP), no fMRI activations have been reported in the OB (Boyett-Anderson et al, 2003;Gottfried et al, 2002;Poellinger et al, 2001;Sobel et al, 1998;Sobel et al, 2000;Yang et al, 1997). The reason for this difference between rodents and humans is not clear.…”
