Several functional brain mapping techniques have been developed over the past 3 decades
which have revolutionized our ability to map activity in the living brain, including positron …

This study aims to assess the impact of unilateral increases in carotid stiffness on cortical
functional connectivity measures in the resting state. Using a novel animal model of induced …

The LOU/c rat is an inbred strain considered a model of healthy aging. It exhibits a longer
free disease lifespan and a low adiposity throughout life. While this animal model has been …

In this research, we model the color of optically dense colloidal dispersions of dyed and
undyed zein particles using results from multiple light scattering theory. These particles, as …

To investigate the effect of resting blood oxygen concentration on the hemodynamic
response to functional brain activation, we compared activation-induced changes in …

Interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) are brief neuronal discharges occurring between
seizures in patients with epilepsy. The characterization of the hemodynamic response …

Assessing intravascular blood oxygen saturation (SO 2) is crucial for characterizing in vivo
microenvironmental changes in preclinical models of injury and disease. However, most …

Absorption and scattering processes in biological tissues are studied through reflectance
spectroscopy in tissue-like phantoms. For this aim, an experimental setup is designed to …

Based on enlarged blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) responses in cognitively normal
subjects at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD), compensatory neuronal hyperactivation has …

Functional brain imaging allows measuring dynamic functionality in all brain regions. It is
broadly used in clinical cognitive neuroscience as, well as in research. It will allow the …
