Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In the last decade, NMR has set the basis for the understanding of the function and disfunction of the human brain. Particularly, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has a leading position among the methodologies used for investigation and diagnostic of the Central Nervous System. In the 90's the objective of finding new investigating means drove scientists towards different approaches. Among these, we have: 1) Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) MRI. 2) Double Magnetic Resonance (DMR) 3) Hyperpolarized Gases.

These 3 methods are aimed at detecting brain metabolites with increasing sensitivity and resolution.

They are widely proposed by the lectures of this Varenna courses, that contain the widest and deepest presentation of this field, intended for all people who are working at the development of these interdisciplinary areas, i.e. physicists, chemists, engineers, but also including the biomedical aspects of brain function in connection to the NMR potentialities: the volume represents an original and crucial tool for those who want to investigate the fascinating world of human brain by NMR.
