  1. Spatial patterns of intrinsic brain activity in mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease: a resting-state functional MRI study

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Human brain mapping 2010-11-12 Brain scans and imaging

    We used resting-state functional MRI to investigate spatial patterns of spontaneous brain activity in 22 healthy elderly subjects, as well as 16 mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and 16 Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients.

  2. Alterations in regional homogeneity of resting-state brain activity in autism spectrum disorders

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Brain research 2010-01-04 Brain scans and imaging

    Measures assessing resting-state brain activity with blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can reveal cognitive disorders at an early stage.

  3. Slowing of oscillatory brain activity is a stable characteristic of Parkinson's disease without dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Brain : a journal of neurology 2007-04-05 Brain scans and imaging

    Extensive changes in resting-state oscillatory brain activity have recently been demonstrated using magnetoencephalography (MEG) in moderately advanced, non-demented Parkinson's disease patients relative to age-matched controls.
