Brain Activation in the Prefrontal Cortex during Motor and Cognitive Tasks in Adults
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) plays an important role in cognitive function, involved in Executive Functions (EFs) such as planning, working memory, and inhibition. Activation in the PFC also occurs during some motor activities. One commonly used tool to assess EF is the Tower of Hanoi, demonstrating sensitivity to PFC dysfunction. However, limited neuroimaging evidence is available to support th...
متن کاملNear-infrared optical detection of sequential brain activation in the prefrontal cortex during mental tasks.
To examine the spatiotemporal differences of brain activation during mental tasks, changes in the oxygenation and hemodynamics in two regions of the prefrontal cortex were measured simultaneously by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Subjects were eight healthy adults who attempted to solve three different mathematical problems. The behavior of concentration changes in oxy-, deoxy-, and total h...
متن کاملMales and females differ in brain activation during cognitive tasks.
To examine the effect of gender on regional brain activity, we utilized functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during a motor task and three cognitive tasks; a word generation task, a spatial attention task, and a working memory task in healthy male (n = 23) and female (n = 10) volunteers. Functional data were examined for group differences both in the number of pixels activated, and the ...

15 صفحه اولNormal Electrical Activity of the Brain in Obsessive-Compulsive Patients After Anodal Stimulation of the Left Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex
Introduction: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) has been used as a non-invasive method to increase the plasticity of brain. Growing evidence has shown several brain disorders such as depression, anxiety disorders, and chronic pain syndrome are improved following tDCS. In patients with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), increased brain rhythm activity particularly in the frontal l...
