CBV-weighted fMRI
Also known as: CBVw fMRI
Taxonomy: Technique Branch / Method. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.
Summary
The supplied review summary explicitly emphasizes CBV-weighted fMRI as central to layer-specific fMRI and laminar activity mapping.
Usefulness & Problems
Why this is useful
CBV-weighted fMRI measures blood-volume-related signal changes and is presented in the supplied materials as a core approach for layer-specific functional imaging. The review context frames it as especially relevant for laminarized neocortex and olfactory bulb studies.; mapping laminar activity with improved vascular specificity; probing layer-specific neurophysiological activity in animal models

It requires fMRI acquisition configured for CBV sensitivity. In the supplied summary, animal implementations are associated with MION contrast agents.; requires CBV-sensitive acquisition strategy; animal-study use is linked in the supplied summary to MION-based contrast approaches
The provided evidence does not establish that CBV-weighted fMRI fully removes vascular confounds or generalizes without tradeoffs across all settings.; animal-study implementations are described as relying on contrast-agent approaches in the supplied summary
