Background and Purpose— We investigated whether transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) before
stroke can induce tolerance by raising the threshold of tissue vulnerability in the human …

THE present study addresses phonological processing in children with developmental
dyslexia. Following the hypothesis of a core deficit of assembled phonology in dyslexia a set of …

Perception of surface orientation is an essential step for the reconstruction of the three-dimensional
(3D) structure of an object. Human lesion and functional neuroimaging studies have …

Functional MRI is based on the vascular response due to neuronal activation. The underlying
mechanism of fMRI is the blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) effect—a complex …

Pain is processed in multiple cortical and subcortical brain areas. Subcortical structures are
substantially involved in different processes that are closely linked to pain processing, eg …

Background and Purpose— We tested the hypothesis that early diffusion- and perfusion-weighted
MRI (DWI and PWI, respectively) allows the prediction of malignant middle cerebral …

The ability to locate pain plays a pivotal role in immediate defense and withdrawal behavior.
However, how the brain localizes nociceptive information without additional information …

Background and Purpose— We sought to study the role of MRI-derived cerebral blood flow (CBF)
measurements for the prediction of lesion development in acute stroke patients. …

Perfusion-and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging scans are thought to allow
the characterization of tissue at risk of infarction. The authors tested the hypothesis that the …

Pain is processed in multiple brain areas, indicating the complexity of pain perception. The
ability to locate pain plays a pivotal role in immediate defense and withdrawal behavior. …
