Hi, everyone,
I guess that was an example of a sense of humor? Well, word gets around. Here's a response from Dr. Shibata. :-)

From: Dean Shibata, M.D.I would like to confirm that the research is in fact entirely real. I conducted the scans here at the University of Rochester and presented them last week at the RSNA (Radiological Society of North America) in Chicago.
You can look up the press releases or meeting abstract listing from the RSNA meeting at http://rsna.expoexchange.com/content/scientific_program/sciprodetail.asp?key=104214 .
The press release from my university is at http://www.urmc.rochester.edu/pr/News/finding.html .
It was reported on Reuters news wires in health and science and at http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/nm/20001127/hl/brain_2.html and http://more.abcnews.go.com/sections/living/dailynews/humor001128.html . It should be featured in the New York Times Tuesday science section.
It's interesting that this story would provoke such a reaction. It's definitely not a "joke" or "hoax". I'm not a hacker.
