Abstract

Quatrième de couverture : "A l’ère des neurosciences et de leur numérisation massive, la détermination des structures fines du cerveau et la compréhension de son fonctionnement sont devenues des enjeux de premier ordre. Dans ce contexte, l’IRM s’est imposée comme une technique reine. Grâce à elle, le cerveau s’offre au regard, dévoilant arcanes et tréfonds scintillants… La visualisation des processus cognitifs via des images spectaculaires, qui fascinent les chercheurs autant que le public, engendre une nouvelle relation à notre corps pensant et agissant. Mais que sont ces objets numériques d’un nouveau genre ? Comment ces images sont-elles acquises, sur quelles bases techniques et par quels protocoles ? Et quel projet anime ceux qui établissent des atlas de référence, dessinant un cerveau pixelisé dans lequel tous les autres doivent se fondre ? Pour le savoir, Giulia Anichini s’est immergée plusieurs années durant dans deux centres de recherche en imagerie où elle a pu observer les pratiques et les savoir-faire, décrire les implicites. Partant des lieux et des acteurs de ces pratiques, de leur environnement matériel, elle décrit les méthodes d’acquisition des images, leurs transformations successives et les bricolages informatiques mis en œuvre pour sauver des résultats pas toujours probants. Elle montre comment les banques de données saturées d’images obtenues selon des choix techniques et théoriques hétérogènes constituent désormais une extension inéluctable du laboratoire de neuro-imagerie, où s’élabore une science data driven prétendument affranchie de la théorie. L’accumulation de ces résultats à la fiabilité pas toujours assurée n’est pas neutre, notamment par ses implications dans le champ des neurosciences sociales, quand les émotions dites morales tracent leur géographie dans le « cortex numérique ». Entre enquête ethnologique, sociologie des sciences et analyse épistémologique, Giulia Anichini propose ici une vision inédite des neurosciences, de leurs présupposés, leurs conjectures et leurs ambitions."

Abstract

"Osborn's Brain: Imaging, Pathology, and Anatomy is the much-pleaded-for successor to Anne G. Osborn's 1993 award winning book Diagnostic Neuroradiology (a.k.a. "The Red Book"), which became one of the all-time bestselling neuroradiology texts. In this highly anticipated 1,200-page volume, Anne Osborn applies her special touch to make complex topics visually appealing and easy to understand. It wraps the "must know" aspects of brain imaging together with spectacular pathology examples, relevant anatomy, and the most up-to-date modalities and techniques in brain imaging"--Provided by publisher.

Abstract

Functional Neuroradiology: Principles and Clinical Applications, is a follow-up to Faro and Mohamed’s groundbreaking work, Functional (BOLD)MRI: Basic Principles and Clinical Applications.  This new 49 chapter textbook is comprehensive and offers a complete introduction to the state-of-the-art functional imaging in Neuroradiology, including the physical principles and clinical applications of Diffusion, Perfusion, Permeability, MR spectroscopy, Positron Emission Tomography,  BOLD fMRI  and  Diffusion Tensor Imaging. With chapters written by internationally distinguished neuroradiologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, cognitive neuroscientists, and physicists, Functional Neuroradiology is divided into 9 major sections, including: ·        Physical principles of all key functional techniques; ·        Lesion characterization using Diffusion, Perfusion, Permeability, MR spectroscopy, and Positron Emission Tomography; ·       An overview of BOLD fMRI physical principles and key concepts, including scanning methodologies, experimental research design, data analysis, and functional connectivity; ·       Eloquent Cortex and White matter localization using BOLD fMRI and Diffusion Tensor Imaging; ·       Clinical applications of BOLD fMRI in Neurosurgery, Neurology, Psychiatry, Neuropsychology, and Neuropharmacology; ·       Multi-modality functional Neuroradiology; ·        Beyond Proton Imaging; ·        Functional spine and CSF imaging; ·        A full-color Neuroanatomical Brain atlas of eloquent cortex and key white matter tracts and BOLD fMRI paradigms. By offering readers a complete overview of functional imaging modalities and techniques currently used in patient diagnosis and management, as well as emerging technology, Functional Neuroradiology is a vital information source for physicians and cognitive neuroscientists involved in daily practice and research.

Abstract

A large part of the contemporary literature involves functional neuroimaging. Yet few readers are sufficiently familiar with the various imaging methods, their capabilities and limitations, to appraise it correctly. To fulfill that need is the purpose of this Handbook, which consists of an accessible description of the methods and their clinical and research applications. The Handbook begins with an overview of basic concepts of functional brain imaging, magnetoencephalography and the use of magnetic source imaging (MSI), positron emission tomography (PET), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). The authors then discuss the various research applications of imaging, such as white matter connectivity; the function of the default mode network; the possibility and the utility of imaging of consciousness; the search for mnemonic traces of concepts the mechanisms of the encoding, consolidation, and retrieval of memories; executive functions and their neuroanatomical mechanisms; voluntary actions, human will and decision-making; motor cognition; language and the mechanisms of affective states and pain. The final chapter discusses the uses of functional neuroimaging in the presurgical mapping of the brain.
