concurrent brain imaging with neural stimulation

Assay Method·Research·Since 2022

Taxonomy: Technique Branch / Method. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.

Summary

When combined with concurrent brain imaging, such stimulation methods can reveal patterns of neuronal activity responsible for regulating simple and complex behaviours at the level of local circuits and across widespread networks.

Usefulness & Problems

Why this is useful

This combined method pairs neural stimulation with simultaneous brain imaging to reveal activity patterns associated with behaviour. The review highlights its use for both local circuit and distributed network analysis.; mapping neuronal activity patterns during stimulation; linking stimulation to local-circuit and network-level activity; studying causal relationships between brain regions and behaviour
