Cortical Cartography: Mapping Functional Areas Across the Human Brain with Resting State Functional Connectivity MRI
… to as resting state functional connectivity: rs-fcMRI), are especially promising as a way to delineate functional areas since they localize differences in patterns of correlated activity across large expanses of cortex. Presented here is the exploration, development, initial application, and …

Functional Connectivity of the Posterior Cingulate in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease
… connectivity magnetic resonance imaging (fcMRI) to examine the posterior cingulate's connectivity with other brain regions in subjects with AD (n=10), MCI (n=9), and age-matched elderly normal controls (NC; n=10). As hypothesized, results revealed that subjects with AD showed decreased …

Functional Connectivity of Entorhinal Cortex in Alzheimer's Disease
… connectivity magnetic resonance imaging (fcMRI). Additional goals of the study were to examine relationships between EC functional connectivity, EC volume, and neuropsychological measures of episodic memory and global cognitive ability. Nine NC and seven AD subjects were imaged using a 3.0 …

Changes in Brain Functional Connectivity Following Donepezil Treatment in Alzheimer's Disease
… connectivity magnetic resonance imaging (fcMRI) to explore changes in brain connectivity and their behavior correlates in nine regions of interest (ROIs) in eleven patients with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD) following treatment with the cholinesterase inhibitor, donepezil. The ROIs were …

Effects of Exercise Therapy on Functional Connectivity in Parkinson's Disease
Forced-rate lower-extremity exercise has recently emerged as a potential safe and low-cost therapy for Parkinson's Disease (PD). The efficacy is believed to be dependent on high rates of exercise. In this study, we use functional connectivity (FC) MRI to further elucidate the mechanism underlying …
