Functional Mapping of Nervous System Using Optical Imaging Techniques

Intraoperative Human Functional Brain Mapping Using Optical Intrinsic Signal Imaging

Functional brain mapping strives to describe the brain’s organization as a mosaic of distinct regions, each of which subserves a particular function. Advances in our understanding of functional brain organization over the past decades have been propelled by the availability of increasingly sophisticated methods for assessing various aspects of neuronal activity in vivo. These methods can be bro...

Determination of experimental Tumor Volume of a mouse using optical imaging system in different processing stages

Functional mapping of cortical areas with optical imaging

Sensory areas in mammalian cortex compute sensory inputs of different modalities in order to perceive the environment. Much is known about the anatomical pattern of inter-laminar connections, which form the basis of the computational process. Nevertheless, less is known about the functional relevance of these wiring patterns. We used intrinsic optical signals (IOSs) in vitro to investigate func...

Inland wetlands mapping and vulnerability assessment using an integrated geographic information system and remote sensing techniques

The understanding of inland wetlands’ distribution and their level of vulnerability is important to enhance management and conservation efforts. The aim of the study was to map inland wetlands and assess their distribution pattern and vulnerability to natural and human disturbances such as climate change (temperature increase) and human activities by the year 2080. Inland wetland types i.e. for...
