The ability of the auditory cortex in the brain to distinguish different sounds is important in
daily life. This study investigated whether activations in the auditory cortex caused by …

The physical intensity of a sound, usually expressed in dB on a logarithmic ratio scale, can
easily be measured using technical equipment. Loudness is the perceptual correlate of …

For much of the past 30 years, investigations of auditory perception and language have
been enhanced or even driven by the use of functional neuroimaging techniques that …

While functional connectivity in the human cortex has been increasingly studied, its
relationship to cortical representation of sensory features has not been documented as …

In everyday life, we need a capacity to flexibly shift attention between alternative sound
sources. However, relatively little work has been done to elucidate the mechanisms of …

In the early years of fMRI research, the auditory neuroscience community sought to expand
its knowledge of the underlying physiology of hearing, while also seeking to come to grips …

Numerous studies on the tonotopic organisation of auditory cortex in humans have
employed a wide range of neuroimaging protocols to assess cortical frequency tuning. In the …

This study investigated the hemisphere-specific effects of the temporal pattern of imaging
related acoustic noise on auditory cortex activation. Hemodynamic responses (HDRs) to five …

The various methods of medical imaging are essential for many diagnostic issues in clinical
routine, eg, for the diagnostics and localisation of tumorous diseases, or for the clarification …

Over the past 20 years or so, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has proven to
be an influential tool for measuring perceptual and cognitive processing non-invasively in …
