Definition of 'Magnetic Resonance Imaging'

Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

Common names: Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Imaging, Magnetic Resonance; NMR Imaging; Imaging, NMR; Zeugmatography; Tomography, MR; Tomography, NMR; MR Tomography; NMR Tomography; Tomography, Proton Spin; Proton Spin Tomography; Magnetization Transfer Contrast Imaging; MRI Scans; MRI Scan; Scan, MRI; Scans, MRI

Altered corticostriatal functional connectivity in obsessive-compulsive disorder.

30 Oct 2009 CONTEXT: Neurobiological models of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) emphasize disturbances in the function and connectivity of brain corticostriatal networks, or "loops." Although neuroimaging studies of patients have supported this network model ... Read more...


Clinical, functional, and neurophysiologic assessment of dysplastic cortical networks: Implications for cortical functioning and surgical management.

29 Sep 2009 Cortical malformations are highly epileptogenic lesions associated with complex, unanticipated, and often aberrant electrophysiologic and functional relationships. These relationships are inextricably linked to widespread cortical networks ... Read more...


An FMRI study of the effects of psychostimulants on default-mode processing during Stroop task performance in youths with ADHD.

13 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: The authors examined the effect of psychostimulants on brain activity in children and adolescents with ADHD performing the Stroop Color and Word Test. METHOD: The authors acquired 52 functional MRI scans in 16 youths with ADHD who were ... Read more...
