But now, thanks to
advances in brain imaging techniques and improved understanding of numerical cognition in general, new insights into the disorder have begun to emerge.
Advances in brain imaging can identify a greater number of stroke patients who can receive therapy later than previously believed, according to a new study.
Vivek Srinivasan, PhD: So I'm looking forward to combining my expertise in optical coherence tomography technology with my recent
experience in brain imaging and thinking about neurodegenerative diseases to help solve the problem of biomarkers in glaucoma.
«Our MS research aims to improve quality of life by developing effective non-invasive treatments, using the
latest in brain imaging technology, to minimize the effects of MS on cognitive performance.
In addition, Nader partners with physicists and radiologists to observe how substances attach to brain receptors, and to conduct longitudinal studies observing the consequences of long - term drug abuse, recovery and abstinence using the latest
in brain imaging technology.
While no one knows why psychedelics exert powerful positive effects or why they transform perceptions,
progress in brain imaging has allowed researchers to discover where these drugs act in the brain.
«The datasets being collected now
[in brain imaging studies] are already taking this more seriously.»
That report,
published in Brain Imaging and Behavior, quickly led to further research — a National Institutes of Health - funded study at Pitt examining the brain during dual cognitive - balance performance in children following concussion.
«It's important for Walt to thrash this out, push the technology and see what it can do... [and] he's one of the
few in brain imaging who is collaborating with the military and TBI doctors on clinical applications.»
Advances
in brain imaging techniques mean we are now able to pinpoint the precise brain regions involved in the near - miss effect and identify how they interact with people's vulnerability to problem gambling.»
The Brain Imaging Council was established to bring together those SNMMI members with an
interest in brain imaging using radiopharmaceuticals.
Our physicians are also highly
skilled in brain imaging, monitoring, and other advanced medical techniques to localize, and in some cases surgically remove, the focus of your seizures.
Other tenants announced are strategically aligned to grow Toronto's health industries: The West Tower will accommodate the rapid growth of Synaptive Medical, a
leader in brain imaging to guide complex neurosurgery; LEAGUE, a new personal health platform; and Ryerson University's science faculty, providing critical laboratory capacity for researchers and graduate students.
So I'm looking forward to combining my expertise in OCT technology with my recent
experience in brain imaging and thinking about neurodegenerative diseases to help solve the problem of biomarkers in glaucoma.
In a brain imaging study of some of these children conducted when they reached adolescence, Frye, Malmberg, Swank, Smith, and Landry (2010) reported that preterm / VLBW birth was characterized by regional and hemispheric differences in cortical thickness and surface area.
Thanks to modern
advances in brain imaging and the ability to monitor brain activity, researchers now understand more about the sleep - wake cycle, the different stages of sleep, and the different states of consciousness.
In brain imaging studies, the OPFC is highly active when people deliberate between actions with uncertain risks and rewards, and clinical reports describe patients, such as Gage, whose inability to consider long - term consequences can lead to tragic outcomes.
The researchers found that they experience brain and cognitive changes «on a minority of measures»
in brain imaging and psychological tests.
Editorial note: Although the research team here is careful and confirms the findings in independent groups and
in brain imaging and fear discrimination experiments, this is a preliminary result.
With advances
in both brain imaging and neuroscience came a fuller understanding of trauma; what it is; how it is experienced and stored in the body and subcortical areas of the brain; and state of the art therapeutic interventions for its successful resolution.
