Download or read book Dynamic Functional Connectivity in Neuropsychiatric Disorders Methods and Applications volume II written by Zaicu Cui and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-06-07 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuropsychiatric disorders have a huge impact on individuals, families and societies. However, the neuropathology underlying cognitive deficits in neuropsychiatric disorders remains unclear. Resting-state functional connectivity provides a powerful way to investigate functional alterations underlying cognitive deficits in neuropsychiatric disorders. Traditional FC analysis measures the correlations of signals with an assumption that functional connectivity remains constant during the observation period. In recent years, several studies have demonstrated the feasibility of dynamic methods in characterization of functional brain changes, such as dynamic functional connectivity investigated by a sliding window method. However, selection of window size, window stepsize and window type are open areas of research and an important parameter to capture the resting-state FC dynamics.

Download or read book Reliability and Reproducibility in Functional Connectomics written by Xi-Nian Zuo and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Functional connectomics enables researchers to monitor interactions among thousands of units within the whole brain simultaneously by using various vivo imaging technologies. For example, resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging can image low-frequency fluctuations in the spontaneous brain activities, representing a popular tool for macro-scale functional connectomics to characterize individual differences in normal brain function, mind-brain associations, and the various disorders. Reliability and reproducibility represents the most fundamental and critical aspect for the human brain functional connectomics to both research and clinical practice. Unfortunately, lacking a data platform for researchers to rigorously explore the reliability and reproducibility of the functional connectome indices has been a bottleneck of further development of clinically oriented imaging markers in the field. Recent efforts on open neuroscience, such as Consortium for Reliability and Reproducibility, Human Connectome Project and OpenFMRI, provide the data for the field to refine and evaluate reliability and reproducibility of novel methods as well as those with widespread usage but without sufficient consideration of reliability. This Frontiers Research Topic aims at bringing together contributions from researchers in brain imaging, neuroscience, computer sciences, applied mathematics, psychology and related fields from an interdisciplinary perspective. By focusing on cutting-edge research across these fields, this topic will create new agenda on quantifying the reliability and reproducibility of the myriad connectomics-based measures and informing expectations regarding the potential of biomarker discovery.

Download or read book Proceedings of the International School on Magnetic Resonance and Brain Function XII Workshop written by Federico Giove and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last thirty years, Magnetic Resonance has generated a wide revolution in biomedical research and in medical imaging in general. More recently, the "in vivo" studies of the human brain were extended by new original ways to the dynamic study of function and metabolism of the human brain. The enormous interest in expanding the investigation of the brain is emphasizing the search for new NMR methods capable of extracting information of so-far obscure aspects of the brain function. In fact, many quantitative approaches have been proposed in order to complement the information obtained by functional MRI, and several multimodal and multiparametric approaches have been developed to exploit the information, either functional or structural, made available by the flexible contrast generation typical of MRI, and to combine it with complementary information. The XII workshop of the International School on Magnetic Resonanceand Brain Function, held in Erice between 17 April and 6 May, 2016, was specially devoted to novel approaches aimed at better structural characterization of brain diseases, and at investigating frontiers MRI approaches to better understand the brain function. The papers included in this eBook offer a broad overview of the subjects covered during the Workshop, including applications of multiparametric MRI to neurological diseases, multimodal combination of MRI with electrophysiology, advanced methods for the investigation of brain networks and of brain physiology, and perspectives towards brain state reading.
