Spatial Resolution: Spatial resolution refers to the ability to distinguish between different points in space‚ specifically within the brain in neuroimaging contexts. Higher spatial resolution means that imaging techniques can discern smaller anatomical structures or finer details within the brain. This is crucial for pinpointing where specific brain activities or abnormalities occur. Techniques like structural MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and high-resolution fMRI (functional MRI) have relatively

Modern day ECT is very safe you will be connected up to equipment which will monitor your heart rate‚ blood pressure‚ oxygen levels etc. and possibly an EEG machine which will monitor your brain wave levels when having the fit. You’re then giving general anaesthetic (needle inserted into hand) and a muscle relaxant which will stop you from having violent convulsions during the fit. You will then be giving

Multimodal Human-Machine Emotional Intelligence System Abstract: The lot of researcher have developed intelligent human behaviours system that can effectively perform human behaviours detection method but in order to react appropriately as like a human‚ the computer would need to have some perception of the emotional state of the human‚ so that this research is used to evaluate the potential for emotion recognition technology to improve the quality of human- computer interaction in real time

Across three studies‚ 6 of 13 people with Alice in Wonderland syndrome were found to have abnormal electroencephalogram patterns over parieto-occipital and occipital electrode sites. Other reports failed to find abnormal EEG in individuals with the disorder (in five of five cases). Abnormal visual evoked potentials recorded in response to a reversing black and white checkerboard has been reported in children with Alice in Wonderland syndrome. Blood perfusion of brain tissue

specialised tests being performed to rule out rarer but more easily treated disorders. These include blood tests for underactivity of the thyroid gland‚ vitamin deficiency and rare infections; electrical recordings of the brain (an electroencephalogram; EEG) should also be performed because a form of epilepsy that is readily treated can also cause a confused state that mimics Alzheimer’s disease. What is the treatment for Alzheimer’s

Toward the end of the 1940s‚ Soviet researchers sealed five prison inmates in an airtight chamber and dosed them with an experimental stimulant gas to test the effects of prolonged sleep deprivation. Their behavior was observed via two-way mirrors and their conversations monitored electronically. They were promised their freedom if they could go without sleep for 30 days. The first few days passed uneventfully. By the fifth day‚ however‚ the subjects began showing signs of stress and were overheard

caring for her studied her condition very carefully. They never rushed into anything in regards to her treatment. It was one morning during hemodialysis that she suffered a severe CVA that left her with very little brain activity‚ which was shown on her EEG. The neurologist talked with the family on several occasions informing them that this was a severe stroke that affected the brain stem area of the patient’s brain‚ which ultimately left her with very little brain activity. The family could never really

The participants completed the normal version of the task either a week before or after the rotation adaptation task.
