Conclusions: Our findings demonstrate that functional MRI (fMRI) combined with a
questionnaire is a useful method for studying the neuroanatomy of olfaction. Further studies …

Background. Data in the literature report that a number of studies have attempted to identify
the exact location of the cortical olfaction representation, searching for evidence suggesting …

Olfaction could prove to be an early marker of neurodegenerative diseases, including
Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. To use olfaction for disease diagnosis, elucidating …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) enables us to visualise neuronal activation
of the brain to a given stimulus, be it a simple stimulation paradigm or a complex task. More …

It is well known that most odorants stimulate both the olfactory system and the trigeminal
system. However, the overlap between the brain processes involved in each of these …

Given the strong relationship between human olfaction and emotion, it is not surprising that
numerous studies have investigated human response to hedonic and arousing qualities of …

Background:: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a non-invasive and
convenient method of mapping brain activity associated with the human sensory systems …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Odors can elicit a range of behaviors and emotions. Our
purpose was to identify regional activation of the human cerebral cortex in response to …

Objective To show the results of a device that generates automated olfactory stimuli suitable
for functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) experiments. Material and methods Ten …

To identify the BOLD effects related to olfaction in humans, we recorded functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI) scans in response intravenously instilled thiamine propyl disulfide …
