Quantum imaging at a distance is published, we just use that at IR spec frequencies of unique chemicals at neural tissue to record activity
I have read things at New Scientist where a quantum linked photon pair creates one photon that goes through an opaque area then is absorbed with a uniquely shaped object (Yanhua Shih) The quantum benefit is that the linked photon at a physically distant different transparent detector space traces a 3d outline of where its linked friend is absorbed (link). We just apply that to the color absorption of chemicals looking for uniques with something rather like quantum linked IR spectroscopy then use it on neural tissue to describe what brain chemicals are doing what where, particularly at the moments people are being particularly brilliant to find optimal brain chemistry as well as structure.
First visualize describing the active chemistry of a leaf The ratio of GG' to YY' (Green photon Green prime photon, Yellow photon Yellow prime photon) absorption describes where the chlorophyll is at with a raster trace. Then give the leaf light n glucose to see active change noting the immanentization of Green from absorption of green prime photon as chlorophyll accumulates. This is similar enough to Shihs work to function. Bringing this to human biology just use the same system on neural tissue using the frequencies of IR spectroscopy to find what natural chemical or protein, or contrast nutrient is doing what where when people think.
The really thrilling thing would be to measure mRNA production live because then you would know which genes were on during different kinds of thoughts, then you could genetically engineer organisms to make varied amounts of those proteins to improve cognition. It would also precisely describe the genetic basis of any disease.
A camera took this image of a toy soldier without collecting any light that had gone near it. Instead it recorded photons with a quantum link to others that did bounce off it
