X Abstract

We report a novel method to identify brain regions generically activated by periodic experimental design in functional magnetic resonance imaging data. This involves: 1) registering each of N individual functional magnetic resonance imaging datasets in a standard space; 2) computing the median standardised power of response to the experimental design; 3) testing median standardised power at each voxel against its nonparametrically ascertained distribution under the null hypothesis of no experimental effect; and 4) constructing a generic brain activation map. The method is validated by analysis of 6 null images, acquired under conditions when the null hypothesis was known to be true; 8 images acquired during periodic auditory-verbal stimulation; and 6 images acquired during periodic performance of a covert verbal fluency task.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
