Abnormal amplitude of low‐frequency fluctuations and functional connectivity of resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging in patients with leukoaraiosis
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the cerebral function deficits in patients with leukoaraiosis (LA) and the correlation with white matter hyperintensity (WMH) using functional MRI (fMRI) technology. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-eight patients with LA and 30 volunteers were enrolled in this study. All patients underwent structural MRI and resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) scan...
متن کاملSoftware Tools for the Analysis of Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has become the most popular method for imaging of brain functions. Currently, there is a large variety of software packages for the analysis of fMRI data, each providing many features for users. Since there is no single package that can provide all the necessary analyses for the fMRI data, it is helpful to know the features of each software package. ...
متن کاملEvidence of timing effects on acupuncture: A functional magnetic resonance imaging study
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine there is an optimum time to administer acupuncture at a particular acupoint. The present study used functional magnetic resonance imaging to investigate the timing effects of acupuncture at the Zusanli (ST36) acupoint. A total of 10 healthy volunteers and 10 post-stroke patients were recruited. The subjects received acupuncture stimulation at ST36 durin...
متن کاملAcupuncture reveals no specific effect on primary auditory cortex: a functional magnetic resonance imaging study.
Although acupuncture is effective in the treatment of several clinical conditions, its specificity has been questioned. We studied the effects of needle stimulation applied to 'ear-specific' acupuncture point GB43 on activations in primary auditory cortex using functional magnetic resonance imaging in comparison with sham acupuncture. Twenty healthy volunteers participated in this cross-over in...
