Statistical Analysis Methods for the fMRI Data
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a safe and non-invasive way to assess brain functions by using signal changes associated with brain activity. The technique has become a ubiquitous tool in basic, clinical and cognitive neuroscience. This method can measure little metabolism changes that occur in active part of the brain. We process the fMRI data to be able to find the parts of br...
متن کاملImproving the Performance of ICA Algorithm for fMRI Simulated Data Analysis Using Temporal and Spatial Filters in the Preprocessing Phase
Introduction: The accuracy of analyzing Functional MRI (fMRI) data is usually decreases in the presence of noise and artifact sources. A common solution in for analyzing fMRI data having high noise is to use suitable preprocessing methods with the aim of data denoising. Some effects of preprocessing methods on the parametric methods such as general linear model (GLM) have previously been evalua...
متن کاملImaging methodologies and applications for nutrition research: what can functional MRI offer? - ERRATUM.
Food intake is influenced by a complex regulatory system involving the integration of a wide variety of sensory inputs across multiple brain areas. Over the past decade, advances in neuroimaging using functional MRI (fMRI) have provided valuable insight into these pathways in the human brain. This review provides an outline of the methodology of fMRI, introducing the widely used blood oxygenati...
متن کاملDetermination of aroma and bitter characteristic of Iranian hop (Humulus lupulus L.) variety by essential oil analysis
Hop (Humulus lupulus L) is cultivated worldwide for two purposes of aroma and bitter taste. The main objective of this study was to determine the predominant characteristic of hop cultivated in Iran using GC-MS analysis of essential oils obtained from fresh and heat dried hop strobiles. Essential oils (EO) of female flowers of hop (Humulus lupulus L.) cultivated in Gorgan, Iran were obtained by...
متن کاملBrain Activity Map Extraction from Multiple Sclerosis Patients Using Resting-State fMRI Data Based on Amplitude of Low Frequency Fluctuations and Regional Homogeneity Analysis
Introduction: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the most common non-traumatic neurological diseases of young adults. MS often reported during ages 20-62. MS affects the various anatomical parts of the central nervous system. Up to 65% of multiple sclerosis patients MS patients suffer from various problems, such as fatigue, depression, pain and sleep disorders. Unlike MRI, that only sh...
