Lung functional imaging. [PDF]
Breathe (Sheff), 2023 Pulmonary functional imaging modalities such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear imaging can quantitatively assess regional lung functional parameters and their distributions. These include ventilation, perfusion, gas exchange at the microvascular level and biomechanical properties, among other variables.

Caloric vestibular stimulation reduces pain and somatoparaphrenia in a severe chronic central post-stroke pain patient: a case study [PDF]
, 2016 Central post-stroke pain is a neuropathic syndrome characterized by intolerable contralesional pain and, in rare cases, somatic delusions. To date, there is limited evidence for the effective treatments of this disease.

In-vivo two-photon imaging of the honey bee antennal lobe [PDF]
, 2010 Due to the honey bee's importance as a simple neural model, there is a great need for new functional imaging modalities. Herein we report on the use of two-photon microscopy for in-vivo functional and morphological imaging of the honey bee's olfactory ...

Pericyte-mediated regulation of capillary diameter: a component of neurovascular coupling in health and disease [PDF]
, 2010 Because regional blood flow increases in association with the increased metabolic demand generated by localised increases in neural activity, functional imaging researchers often assume that changes in blood flow are an accurate read-out of changes in ...

Functional imaging -- schizophrenia [PDF]
British Medical Bulletin, 1996 Evidence from recent studies of brain function in schizophrenia confirms that the frontal underactivity reported in earlier studies is a feature only of cases with decreased psychomotor activity, while patients with different symptom profile have different patterns of cerebral activity.

MRI in multiple myeloma : a pictorial review of diagnostic and post-treatment findings [PDF]
, 2016 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly being used in the diagnostic work-up of patients with multiple myeloma. Since 2014, MRI findings are included in the new diagnostic criteria proposed by the International Myeloma Working Group.

Longitudinal Scalar-on-Function Regression with Application to Tractography Data [PDF]
, 2012 We propose a class of estimation techniques for scalar-on-function regression in longitudinal studies where both outcomes, such as test results on motor functions, and functional predictors, such as brain images, may be observed at multiple visits.
