Evaluation of images of the brain obtained by means of functional magnetic resonance tomography

摘要

A method for evaluating an image (fMRI-image) of the brain that has been obtained by functional magnetic resonance tomography is provided. According to the method, a neuronal network is used to simulate the activities of the brain. Supposed disorders of the brain are simulated in the neuronal network (as a disturbed neuronal network). The activities determined in the brain can be artificially simulated in the model and its effect on the complex synergy of the areas of the brain can be quantified. The comparison with the fMRI image or fMRI activity pattern relating to the patient enables the cause of the disorders to be localized, thus leading to a successful diagnosis.
