[Abstract] Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a novel technique for imaging examination of the nerve, which can reflect the functional state of the brain immediate. This technology is widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases of the nervous system now. Optic neuritis (ON) is a common ophthalmic disease that causes visual impairment in patients, and this paper will give a brief review on the application of fMRI in ON.
