This case report describes absent blood oxygen level–dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) activation of the orbitofrontal cortex in a 25-year-old woman with persistent cacosmia and cacogeusia after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection.

an integrated model for magnetoencephalography (meg) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fmri) is proposed. in the proposed model, meg and fmri outputs are related to the corresponding aspects of neural activities in a voxel. post synaptic potentials (psps) and action potentials (aps) are two main signals generated by neural activities. in the model, both of meg and fmri are related to t...

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...

lipomatosis of the nerve, also known as fibrolipomatous hamartoma, is characterized by the infiltration of the nerve by fibro-fatty tissue. the affected nerve becomes thicker, and it simulates a mass lesion. lipomatosis usually affects the median nerve and lipomatosis of the sciatic nerve is extremely rare. magnetic resonance imaging (mri) is the key to diagnosis, and it is usually pathognomoni...

conclusion these data indicate that while ce-mri will depict more positive results, there are cases in which dwi will show a positive result while ce-mri is negative. we suggest that the combination of these two imaging modalities might yield more positive results in diagnosing acute ms attack giving rise to a more accurate diagnosis. results ce-mri yielded positive results for 61 (87%) patient...

the attempt to find out if someone is telling a lie has been of human's interest. one of the techniques which is believed to be efficient in future is fmri (functional magnetic resonance imaging), using which the changes of regional blood flow during the designed paradigm can be recorded. this method has been considered as a better technique for studying lie and deception. for investigatin...
