Description
The 1990s have been declared the decade of the brain, and with this declaration has come new technologies for understanding brain structure and function. Neuroimaging has provided the means for visually identifying active brain structures in living humans. It provides a dynamic tool for witnessing the functional and dysfunctional brain. This book addresses the technical problems of image registration, inter-subject and intra-subject analysis, and explores the synergistic advantages of multimodal integration. Section one discusses statistical analysis of results and neural network modelling. Section two addresses technical issues associated with techniques such as factors of blood flow metabolism. Section three investigates database management, and section four addresses multi-model integration.
