Reconstruction of functional activations in diffuse optical imaging
We propose a new algorithm for the estimation of functional activations in diffuse optical imaging. Our approach considers the activations to be support limited. We simultaneously...

Effect of minicolumnar disturbance on dyslexic brains: an MRI study
The minicolumn is generally considered the basic unit of the neocortex in all the mammalian brains. Enlargement of the cortical surface is believed to occur through the addition o...
