Reviews

From the reviews: "The title follows a similar review of Dynamic Brain Imaging, with an emphasis on methods and protocols. The stated goal of this book is to ‘… help users learn to decipher the dynamic imaging data.’ … Overall … chapters were well written and accomplished their intended goal of educating the reader about the various dynamic imaging methodologies at various stages of development. … In summary, this review of multimodal in vivo brain imaging methods provides a nice compilation of manuscripts … ."
