Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

7.9K
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Woodward–Hoffmann Selection Rules and Microscopic Reversibility

Electrocyclic reactions, cycloadditions, and sigmatropic rearrangements are concerted pericyclic reactions that proceed via a cyclic transition state. These reactions are stereospecific and regioselective. The stereochemistry of the products depends on the symmetry characteristics of the interacting orbitals and the reaction conditions. Accordingly, pericyclic reactions are classified as either symmetry-allowed or symmetry-forbidden. Woodward and Hoffmann presented the selection criteria for...

Positron Emission Tomography

6.8K
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...

Random Sampling Method01:09

Random Sampling Method

14.0K
Sampling is a technique to select a portion (or subset) of the larger population and study that portion (the sample) to gain information about the population. Data are the result of sampling from a population. The sampling method ensures that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population. Because measuring the entire population in a study is not practical, researchers use samples to represent the population of interest. Among the various sampling methods used by...

Mesh Analysis01:20

Mesh Analysis

1.4K
Mesh analysis is a valuable method for simplifying circuit analysis using mesh currents as key circuit variables. Unlike nodal analysis, which focuses on determining unknown voltages, mesh analysis applies Kirchhoff's voltage law (KVL) to find unknown currents within a circuit. This method is particularly convenient in reducing the number of simultaneous equations that need to be solved.
A fundamental concept in mesh analysis is the definition of meshes and mesh currents. A mesh is a closed...

Distribution Reliability and Automation01:25

Distribution Reliability and Automation

454
Distribution reliability in electrical power systems is critical for ensuring an uninterrupted power supply to consumers at minimal cost. According to IEEE Standard Terms, reliability is the probability that a device will function without failure over a specified time period or amount of usage. For electric power distribution, this translates to maintaining continuous power supply and addressing customer concerns over power outages. Several indices, as defined by IEEE Standard 1366-2012, are...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroimaging
  • Cognitive Neuroscience
  • Data Analysis

Background:

  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies often analyze whole-brain data, yet not all brain regions are relevant for specific research questions.
  • Selecting informative voxels is crucial for efficient and accurate fMRI data analysis.
  • Current methods may not optimally balance data reliability and pattern information.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and validate a novel voxel selection method for fMRI data analysis.
  • To enhance the reliability of multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA) by selecting consistent voxels.
  • To offer an alternative to traditional region-of-interest (ROI) or whole-brain approaches.

Main Methods:

  • A data reliability-based voxel selection strategy was developed.
  • The method identifies voxels exhibiting consistent responses across multiple imaging runs.
  • It maximizes the reliability of multi-voxel patterns within the selected subset of voxels, suitable for designs with >= 15 conditions.

Main Results:

  • The proposed reliability-based method identified a smaller set of voxels compared to activity-based selection in two independent datasets.
  • This approach effectively isolates voxels with stable signal characteristics.
  • Demonstrated utility in reducing data dimensionality while preserving essential information.

Conclusions:

  • Reliability-based voxel selection offers a data-driven approach to fMRI analysis.
  • This method reduces the need for pre-defined regions or arbitrary statistical thresholds.
  • Prioritizing data reliability is a foundational step for robust fMRI data interpretation.
