Recent studies have suggested the neuroinvasive potential of severe acute respiratory
coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Notably, neuroinvasiveness might be involved in the …

Diffusion MRI (or dMRI) came into existence in the mid-1980s. During the last 25years,
diffusion MRI has been extraordinarily successful (with more than 300,000 entries on …

The human thalamus is a brain structure that comprises numerous, highly specific nuclei.
Since these nuclei are known to have different functions and to be connected to different …

Quantitative magnetic susceptibility mapping (QSM) has recently been introduced to provide
a novel quantitative and local MRI contrast. However, the anatomical contrast represented …

The ascending reticular activating system (ARAS) mediates arousal, an essential
component of human consciousness. Lesions of the ARAS cause coma, the most severe …

The thalamus and its nuclei are largely indistinguishable on standard T1 or T2 weighted
MRI. While diffusion tensor imaging based methods have been proposed to segment the …

The anterior thalamic nuclei (ATN), a central component of Papez'circuit, are generally
assumed to be key constituents of the neural circuits responsible for certain categories of …

A fundamental issue in neuroscience is the relation between structure and function.
However, gross landmarks do not correspond well to microstructural borders and …

Parcellation of the human thalamus based on cortical connectivity information inferred from
non-invasive diffusion-weighted images identifies sub-regions that we have proposed …

To achieve a deeper understanding of the brain, scientists, and clinicians use
electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) inverse methods to …
