[1] [2] Applications of MEG include basic research into perceptual and cognitive brain processes, localizing regions affected by pathology before surgical removal, determining the function of various parts of the brain, and neurofeedback. This can be applied in a clinical setting to find locations of abnormalities as well as in an experimental ...
Functional integration (neurobiology) – Study of cooperation of brain regions to process information; Magnetoencephalography – Mapping brain activity by recording magnetic fields produced by currents in the brain; Mental event – Any event that happens within the mind of a conscious individual; Near-infrared spectroscopy – Analytical method
Structural magnetic resonance imaging (structural MRI) of a head, from top to base of the skull. The first chapter of the history of neuroimaging traces back to the Italian neuroscientist Angelo Mosso who invented the 'human circulation balance', which could non-invasively measure the redistribution of blood during emotional and intellectual activity.
They map the brain with fMRI to identify regions linked to critical functions such as speaking, moving, sensing, or planning. This is useful to plan for surgery and radiation therapy of the brain. fMRI image of the brain of a participant in the Personal Genome Project. Clinical use of fMRI still lags behind research use.

Although fMRI and PET are continuously used to localize pain processing areas in the brain, they can not provide direct information about changes in metabolites during pain processing that could help to understand physiological processes behind pain perception and potentially lead to novel treatments for pain. fMRS overcomes this limitation and ...
The impact factor (IF) or journal impact factor (JIF) of an academic journal is a scientometric index calculated by Clarivate that reflects the yearly mean number of citations of articles published in the last two years in a given journal, as indexed by Clarivate's Web of Science.
A number of online neuroscience databases are available which provide information regarding gene expression, neurons, macroscopic brain structure, and neurological or psychiatric disorders. Some databases contain descriptive and numerical data, some to brain function, others offer access to 'raw' imaging data, such as postmortem brain sections ...
Human Brain Mapping is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by John Wiley & Sons covering research on human brain mapping.. According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2014 impact factor of 5.969, ranking it second out of 14 journals in the category "Neuroimaging", [1] fifth out of 125 journals in the category "Radiology Nuclear Medicine & Medical Imaging", [2] and ...
