Preoperative motor system brain mapping using positron emission tomography and statistical parametric mapping: hints on cortical reorganisation.
OBJECTIVES This study investigated the applicability of statistical parametric mapping (SPM) for analysing individual preoperative brain mapping studies in patients with cerebral mass lesions for neurosurgical planning. The study further investigated if hints on functional reorganisation processes can be found. METHODS Nine adult patients with cerebral mass lesions underwent activation [(15)O...
متن کاملComparison of Count Normalization Methods for Statistical Parametric Mapping Analysis Using a Digital Brain Phantom Obtained from Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron Emission Tomography
Objective(s): Alternative normalization methods were proposed to solve the biased information of SPM in the study of neurodegenerative disease. The objective of this study was to determine the most suitable count normalization method for SPM analysis of a neurodegenerative disease based on the results of different count normalization methods applied on a prepared digital phantom similar to one ...
متن کاملBrain Mapping by Positron Emission Tomography 1 1
In this paper the basis of PET (Positron Emission Tomography) is reviewed, and it is shown that the measured signals can be modelled as the Radon transform of the desired spatial distribution of, e.g., the brain activity. Next, two of the direct reconstruction methods are presented. Both are derived from inversion of the Radon transform. It is shown that the reconstruction can be based on lteri...
متن کاملNew Computer-Aided Diagnosis of Dementia Using Positron Emission Tomography: Brain Regional Sensitivity-Mapping Method
PURPOSE We devised a new computer-aided diagnosis method to segregate dementia using one estimated index (Total Z score) derived from the Brodmann area (BA) sensitivity map on the stereotaxic brain atlas. The purpose of this study is to investigate its accuracy to differentiate patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) from normal adults (NL). METHODS We studie...
متن کاملBrain metabolism in patients with vegetative state after post-resuscitated hypoxic-ischemic brain injury: statistical parametric mapping analysis of F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography.
BACKGROUND Hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI) after cardiopulmonary resuscitation is one of the most devastating neurological conditions that causing the impaired consciousness. However, there were few studies investigated the changes of brain metabolism in patients with vegetative state (VS) after post-resuscitated HIBI. This study aimed to analyze the change of overall brain metabolism and ...
