Chapter 1 – Whole-Brain Imaging

The purpose of this chapter is to explain the ostensible magic of whole-brain imaging technology and provide insight into how experiments are designed and interpreted. This chapter will give you the information needed so you may compare the relative strengths and limitations of different structural and functional brain imaging techniques, explain the physical and physiological basis of magnetic resonance imaging/functional magnetic resonance imaging technology, and describe the design of a functional brain imaging experiment: formulating a hypothesis, choosing task paradigms, performing the experiment, acquiring and analyzing data, and constructing figures.
