| Research Abstract |
I aimed to develop a new and quantitative neuroimaging technique, neuro-calorimetry, in order to investigate principle of human brain functions. The method is based on a single voxel Magnetic resonance spectroscopy(SV-MRS) and two dimensional chemical shift imaging(CSI). Comparing conventional functional neuroimaging technique using MRI, BOLD-fMRI, and our functional MRS(fMRS), significant effects of autonomic nervous system on the fMRS signals were observed as artifacts. Therefore, I concluded that further investigations are required to establish neuro-calorimetry based on the functional temperature magnetic resonance imaging(FTMRI)
