Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a relatively new and noninvasive method of functional brain mapping. Functional MRI is increasingly being applied to the study of neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, traumatic brain injury, and others. Particularly noteworthy are findings related to plasticity in the adult human brain. Despite the promise of fMRI for improving the conceptualization, assessment, and treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders, important technical and scientific issues remain. Future research will address integrating fMRI with other emerging neuroimaging techniques.
功能磁共振成像(fMRI)是一种相对较新的、用于大脑功能图谱绘制的非侵入性方法。功能磁共振成像正越来越多地应用于神经精神疾病的研究,包括精神分裂症、阿尔茨海默病、创伤性脑损伤等。特别值得注意的是与成人大脑可塑性相关的研究结果。尽管功能磁共振成像有望改善神经精神疾病的概念化、评估和治疗,但重要的技术和科学问题仍然存在。未来的研究将致力于将功能磁共振成像与其他新兴的神经成像技术相结合。
