Cerena Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Has anyone does this? Just trying to figure out if this is a possibility if you wanted to detect function in a specific part of the brain while performing a specific task.

HBP Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 fMRI can do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerena Posted March 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 fMRI can do that Thanks We're trying to find a way around doing fMRI if we can. Just looking into other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerena Posted March 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Yes, that is exactly why we're looking into SPECT. P.S. I found this one amazing website, 3D spect scans. It looks amazing: http://www.amenclinics.com/brain-science/spect-image-gallery/ TOK, have you done research with SPECT scans before? This would definitely be my first time.

But I've heard that SPECT has pretty good resolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kubel Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Have you looked at Magentoencephalography? (MEG) - Decent spatial resolution and 10ms temporal resolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerena Posted March 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Have you looked at Magentoencephalography? (MEG) - Decent spatial resolution and 10ms temporal resolution. We definitely do not have one of those at our hospital, but wow, that thing looks amazing! We have to do our imaging at the hospital here (I'm from a remote location) but wow, it looks fantastic. I wish we had one here, it looks amazing and just what we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
