These additional tools include quantitative MRI, functional MRI, use of investigational PET compounds, and other methods aimed at imaging senile plaques in the brain (12, 13). Much of this book derives from studies of middle-aged brains using this tool. If you're curious what MRI gradient coils look like and how they work, there's a simple introduction in the book, "Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging" by Huettel, Song and McCarthy. This prepares readers for New imaging techniques, especially noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), made it possible to visualize the locations of brain structures, such as the gray matter and white matter in the cerebral cortex.

Treatment of Patients With Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias, Second Edition. Highlights of this edition include over 6,800 images of remarkable quality, more color images, and new information using advanced techniques, including perfusion and diffusion MRI and functional MRI. The electronic version of this article is the complete one and can be found online at: http://www.trialsjournal.com/content/14/1/29 . The primary tool that has enabled many of these new insights is functional magnetic-resonance imaging. The technique of PET was replaced with the more flexible technique of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), which allowed scientists to study people's brains without the use of the risky radioactive tracers, and to conduct longer studies that collected more data and yielded more In the book “Out of our Heads,” the philosopher Alva Noë wrote, ”It is easy to overlook the fact that images… made by fMRI and PET are not actually pictures of the brain in action. Today, related studies depend on increasingly sophisticated brain-imaging techniques, including TMS and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), which maps blood flow and oxygenation in the brain. The discipline emerged 12 years ago with publication of British neuroscientist Semir Zeki's book, Inner Vision: An Exploration of Art and the Brain. We use cognitive tests (assessing memory, reasoning, and comprehension abilities), functional MRI scans (performing tests of cognitive function while the subject is receiving an MRI scan), and white matter maps constructed using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) scans. In the book's early chapters, Sporns covers general principles of network science and offers background on the structure and dynamics of brain networks based on his research as well as that of many others, including some from my own laboratory.
