Reconstructing anatomy from electro-physiological data

چکیده
Here we show how it is possible to make estimates of brain structure based on MEG data. We do this by reconstructing functional estimates onto distorted cortical manifolds parameterised in terms of their spherical harmonics. We demonstrate that both empirical and simulated MEG data give rise to consistent and plausible anatomical estimates. Importantly, the estimation of structure from MEG data can be quantified in terms of millimetres from the true brain structure. We show, for simulated data, that the functional assumptions which are closer to the functional ground-truth give rise to anatomical estimates that are closer to the true anatomy.

High dynamic range fusion of magnetic resonance flow imaging data
Time-resolved, volumetric phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (also known as 4D flow MRI) is a comprehensive, diagnostic tool used by radiologists to simultaneously assess cardiovascular anatomy, flow, and function. Its ability to resolve both slow and fast hemodynamics (dynamic range) is limited, however. To address this, postprocessing techniques such as phase unwrapping have been used ...
متن کاملReconstructing the temperature degree of the warm seasons through Quercus persica tree rings in Zagros forests Dena region
Trees can record long-term effects of climate variables. Using dendroclimatology knowledge, we can reconstruct such variables especially for areas which have short-term climatic data. For this purpose, we reconstructed the temperature degree of the warm months (May-September) through annual rings width of Quercus persica and regression analysis of data obtained from stations on Dena region. Wit...
متن کاملA 3D virtual environment for modeling mechanical cardiopulmonary interactions
We have developed a computer system for modeling mechanical physiological behavior in an interactive, 3D virtual environment. Such an environment can be used to facilitate exploration of cardiopul-monary physiology, particularly in situations that are diicult to reproduce clinically. We integrate 3D deformable body dynamics with new, formal models of (scalar) cardiorespiratory physiology, assoc...
متن کاملNavigation for fluoroscopy-guided cryo-balloon ablation procedures of atrial fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common arrhythmia, has been identified as a major cause of stroke. The current standard in interventional treatment of AF is the pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). PVI is guided by fluoroscopy or non-fluoroscopic electro-anatomic mapping systems (EAMS). Either classic point-to-point radio-frequency (RF) catheter ablation or so-called single-shot-devices like cryo...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Logics of Pheromone Processing in the Honeybee Brain: From Labeled-Lines to Across-Fiber Patterns
Honeybees employ a very rich repertoire of pheromones to ensure intraspecific communication in a wide range of behavioral contexts. This communication can be complex, since the same compounds can have a variety of physiological and behavioral effects depending on the receiver. Honeybees constitute an ideal model to study the neurobiological basis of pheromonal processing, as they are already on...
