Biomedical Imaging in Experimental Neuroscience

Technological advances and improved sensitivity and resolution have greatly extended the capabilities of biomedical imaging techniques, and magnetic resonance imaging is now common in psychology and cognitive research departments. This book presents a comprehensive review of non-invasive imaging techniques available for laboratory animal research. It discusses the scope and limitations of these techniques and analyzes their impact on in vivo neuroscience research. The author also provides a concise theoretical description of the pertinent physics and emphasizes data analysis, interpretation, and implications.
