*Highlights:*? This article reviews the developments of in vivo 17O NMR imaging in brain research. ? In vivo 17O NMR imaging has improved significantly at high/ultrahigh field. ? In vivo 17O NMR can noninvasively image brain oxygen metabolism and perfusion. ? In vivo 17O NMR is useful for mapping the functional change in oxygen metabolism. ? In vivo 17O NMR imaging could potentially be used for human and clinic applications.</br></br>
