Brain Imaging Techniques

Functional MRI (fMRI), also called BOLD imaging, is a magnetic resonance imaging-based neuroimaging technique that makes it possible to detect the brain areas that are involved in a task, a process or an emotion.

Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is an MRI-based neuroimaging technique which makes it possible to estimate the location, orientation, and anisotropy of the brain's white matter tracts.

Higher-order tractography model, addressing the crossing fibers issue.

Automated brain segmentation and quantification of brain atrophy.

Automated segmentation of the hippocampus, and quantification of hippocampal atrophy.

Perfusion MRI is a neuroimaging technique which can measure the local perfusion of brain tissues.

Amyloid PET is a nuclear medicine technique that uses a tracer that binds to the amyloid β (Aβ) protein deposits in the brain, including the Aβ plaques typically observed in patients with Alzheimer's disease.

Resting-State fMRI is a functional MRI (fMRI) technique in which, unlike in task-based fMRI, the patient is not stimulated by any paradigm. The techniques makes it possible to study the functional connectivity of the brain.

Connectomics is a relatively recent discipline of neuroscience, which studies the brain's connections.

Pharmacologic MRI (phMRI) is imaging drug action in the brain.
