Myelin Water Weighted Diffusion Tensor Imaging
Recent work from BIAC researchers Alex Avram, Arnaud Guidon and Allen Song showed progress toward achieving a tissue-specific, in particular, myelin-specific diffusion tensor imaging (DTI).
Inherent and Dynamic Deblurring for Spiral Imaging
BIAC researchers have developed a novel method that can inherently and dynamically correct for blurring artifacts in spiral imaging.
Task-Related Functional Connectivity
BIAC faculty David Madden and colleagues used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), to examine adult age differences in task switching across adjacent trials (i.e., local task switching).
Effects on Brain Function of Psychotherapy for Depression
BIAC researchers use fMRI to understand the effects on brain function of psychotherapy for depression.
Emotional Priming Effects on Executive Function
BIAC researchers used fMRI to examine the effects of emotional priming on executive processing during a number Stroop task. During trials with less executive requirements (congruent), there was a greater aversive emotional attenuation effect in a network of regions including the inferior frontal gyrus, insula and cingulate gyrus.
