1H magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) can improve the accuracy of target delineation for gliomas, but it lacks the anatomic resolution needed for image fusion. This paper presents a simple protocol for fusing simulation computer tomograp

Circuits within the hippocampal formation are active during memory processing. Here we used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to examine multiple sites across the long axis of the hippocampal formation while subjects performed different ph

Background and Purpose —Recovery from hemiparesis due to corticospinal tract infarction is well documented, but the mechanism of recovery is unknown. Functional MRI (fMRI) provides a means of identifying focal brain activity related to movement of

Memory ability declines in older age groups. There is a growing list of physiological processes that target the hippocampal formation in an age-related fashion, and some might underlie the hippocampal component of memory decline. The hippocampal form

The hippocampal formation is composed of separate anatomical regions interconnected to form a circuit, and investigating abnormal hippocampal function is most revealing at the level of these regions. Until recently, regional analysis of the hippocamp

We mapped motor function in a patient with a cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) before and after treatment with endovascular embolization. Functional activation using technetium-99m-hexamethylpropyleneamine single photon emission tomography (9

Various optical arrangements of a double-wedge-plate shearing interferometer are presented for checking laser beam collimation. The use of moire fringes is found to be advantageous for setting the shear fringes parallel to the direction of shear in o

Proceedings of the 22nd Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (Cat. No.00CH37143).
Polymer gel dosimeter BANG3(R) was used to measure beam placement accuracy of a Leksell Gamma Knife radiosurgery unit. The authors did two experiments over a five-month period. Both show a 1.8-mm (corresponding to the size of two pixels) shift of mea

Four healthy, cognitively intact elders participated. Subjects underwent fMRI scanning while performing a word recognition task with an easy condition (low demand) and a difficult condition titrated to each subject's ability (titrated demand). Relati
Image distortion in MRI-based polymer gel dosimetry of gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery systems

We have studied effects of MR (magnetic resonance) image distortion on polymer gel dosimetry of Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgery systems. MR images of BANG polymer gel phantoms were acquired by using a Hahn spin-echo sequence and a fast 3D imagi
