Scientists have managed to monitor in considerable detail a human brain as it falls unconscious.
The technique is able to detect the waxing and waning of electrical activity within the brain, as a person falls unconscious different areas appear to be 'talking' to one another, however the specific reasons behind this are not yet understood.Although regions of the brain seem to be communicating as "consciousness fades", Professor Pollard cautions that it is early days and that he and his team from the University of Manchester still have many brain scans to analyse before they can say anything conclusive about what is happening.
