Cerebral blood volume mapping software for diagnosis and monitoring of brain disorders
This technology is an fMRI software toolkit that quantitatively maps cerebral blood volume (CBV) for diagnosis, drug discovery, and drug efficacy testing.
Semi-automated program for calculation of cerebral blood volume from fMRI imagesGenerates a functional map of multiple regions in the brain Calculates statistics to quantify brain function Can be run on any Linux computer with MATLAB and modest hardware (>2 GHz quad core, 16 GB RAM, 500 GB hard drive)Can be easily implemented in existing MRI facilities
