MEASUREMENT OF STEADY STATE FUNCTIONAL CONNECTIVITY IN THE HUMAN BRAIN USING FUNCTIONAL MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a noninvasive imaging technique capable of mapping cognitive networks in the human brain that has become widely used for both research and clinical applications. The activity of focal regions within the brain can be inferred based on their blood oxygen...
