The invention provides a method of medical imaging. The method comprises: receiving, for a current active time window (A-N) and during a brain activity analysis session (), fMRI data of a region of interest () of a subject () in an active state. A transverse relaxation, T2*, map may be generated from the fMRI data using a predefined model of fMRI data variations. The generated T2* map may be compared with a reference T2* map. A blood-oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) response of the region of interest () during the current active time window (A-N) may be estimated using the results of the comparison.
