چکیده

We present a large-scale simulation tool for real-time 3D reconstruction of brain activity in a virtual reality environment. The 3D interactive visualization of the human cortex connectome in virtual reality is achieved by using a gaming engine (Unity 3D). Further, the visualization is bi-directionally interfaced with a real-time neuronal simulator, iqr. As a result, by stimulating populations of neurons with external input currents, we are able to reconstruct neural activity propagating in 3D and in real-time. We explicitly demonstrate causal activity propagation in the parietal lobe, indicative of visuo-motor integration. This is a first step to simulating and mapping large-scale brain activity.

Influences of reconstruction and attenuation correction in brain SPECT images obtained by the hybrid SPECT/CT device: evaluation with a 3‐dimensional brain phantom

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influences of reconstruction and attenuation correction on the differences in the radioactivity distributions in 123I brain SPECT obtained by the hybrid SPECT/CT device. Methods: We used the 3-dimensional (3D) brain phantom, which imitates the precise structure of gray mater, white matter and bone regions. It was filled with 123I solution (20...

Rapid and accurate diagnosis of Foot-and-mouth disease virus by Real-time PCR in field samples

During 2010-2011, Real-time PCR procedure was used to detecting FMDV RNA on 147 epithelium samples from the field. In this survey, for Real-time PCR from 3D gene segment as conserve region selected for tracking all of seven serotypes FMDV. The assay detected the viral RNA in all serotypes of FMDV. The rRT-PCR specifically detected FMD virus in sample with greater sensitivity than our convention...

Feasibility of using smartphones in the reconstruction of the interior architecture of the building without using interior control points

The limitation of land in big cities has caused the vertical growth of cities; for example, high-rise buildings on the ground and underground urban facilities can be mentioned. This restriction has increased the value of land in cities, and on the other hand, it has created some new and complicated technical and legal aspects in the cadastral issues. To respond to these new technical and legal ...
