Popis: Over the last years functional MRI has become the primary method for non-invasive assessment of brain activity. Its application in deep brain structures, however, is still limited. Here we report on two studies showing that the use of optimum sequence parameters combined with physiological artefact correction allow activation in human amygdala and hypothalamus to be robustly detected.
