Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand how elderly individuals regain their cognitive skills following general anesthesia. The investigators will compare an age stratified group of volunteers who will be evaluated with a series of cognitive tests and a functional MRI. The participants will then be administered general anesthesia for two hours. The investigators will then assess the participants using state of the art tools to determine when participants return to their cognitive baseline.
