Mapping fetal brain development in utero using magnetic resonance imaging: the Big Bang of brain mapping.
The development of tools to construct and investigate probabilistic maps of the adult human brain from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has led to advances in both basic neuroscience and clinical diagnosis. These tools are increasingly being applied to brain development in adolescence and childhood, and even to neonatal and premature neonatal imaging. Even earlier in development, parallel advan...
متن کاملBRAIN MAPPING IN NEUROSURGERY
Background and Aim: Brain mapping is a study of the anatomy and function of the CNS (central nervous system). Brain mapping has many techniques and these techniques are permanently changing and updating. From the beginning, brain mapping was invasive and for brain mapping, electrical stimulation of the exposed brain was needed. However, nowadays brain mapping does not require electrical stimula...
متن کاملThe demonstration of human fetal brain activity in utero using function magnetic resonance imaging
Introduction This study presents the first direct investigation of fetal brain activity in utero using fMRI. Human fetal brain activity is usually studied indirectly by monitoring the changes in fetal heart rate and associated fetal movements, although recently fetal MEG has been attempted’. fMRI offers a safe and relatively robust method of monitoring fetal brain activity. This has major impli...
متن کاملFunctional magnetic resonance imaging for brain mapping in neurosurgery.
One of the most pertinent applications of the principle primum non nocere (first do no harm) is in the optimization of neurosurgical procedures for patients with resectable lesions. The gold standard for identifying eloquent areas of the brain to be avoided in resections is direct cortical stimulation and somatosensory evoked potential monitoring, which is itself an invasive, cumbersome and dif...
