Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and Expert Testimony [PDF]
Medical experts frequently use imaging studies to illustrate points in their court testimony. This article reviews how these studies impact the credibility of expert testimony with judges and juries. The apparent "objective" evidence provided by such imaging studies can lend strong credence to a judge's or jury's appraisal of medical expert's testimony.

Acoustic, psychophysical, and neuroimaging measurements of the effectiveness of active cancellation during auditory functional magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is one of the principal neuroimaging techniques for studying human audition, but it generates an intense background sound which hinders listening performance and confounds measures of the auditory response ...

Distinct causal influences of parietal versus frontal areas on human visual cortex: evidence from concurrent TMS-fMRI [PDF]
It has often been proposed that regions of the human parietal and/or frontal lobe may modulate activity in visual cortex, for example, during selective attention or saccade preparation.

BackgroundThe diversity of clinical trajectories in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) has made blood and biochemical urine markers less precise, while renal puncture, the gold standard, is almost impossible in the assessment of diabetic kidney disease, and ...

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) with Auditory Stimulation in Songbirds [PDF]
The neurobiology of birdsong, as a model for human speech, is a pronounced area of research in behavioral neuroscience. Whereas electrophysiology and molecular approaches allow the investigation of either different stimuli on few neurons, or one stimulus in large parts of the brain, blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) functional Magnetic Resonance

Methodological problems in fMRI studies on acupuncture: a critical review with special emphasis on visual and auditory cortex activations [PDF]
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been used for more than a decade to investigate possible supraspinal mechanisms of acupuncture stimulation. More than 60 studies and several review articles have been published on the topic.

Modeling and inference of multisubject fMRI data [PDF]
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a rapidly growing technique for studying the brain in action. Since its creation [1], [2], cognitive scientists have been using fMRI to understand how we remember, manipulate, and act on information in ...

Adaptive Gaussian Markov Random Fields with Applications in Human Brain Mapping [PDF]
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has become the standard technology in human brain mapping. Analyses of the massive spatio-temporal fMRI data sets often focus on parametric or nonparametric modeling of the temporal component, while spatial ...
