Fundamentals Of Brain Network Analysis

Fundamentals of Human Imaging Connectomics is the first book to provide an accessible, practical, and comprehensive introduction to imaging connectomics for researchers of any background. Written by experts in all areas of the field, the book contains non-technical, conceptual, and instructive discussions of each of the core principles of imaging connectomics. It features intuitive diagrams, graphical illustrations of key concepts, step-by-step explanations of mathematical formulae, and recommendations for best practices, providing users with an indispensable guide on the study of the human connectome. Provides a step-by-step introduction to connectomics that is suitable for both researchers and students Presents a general overview and discussions of various issues involved in using neuroimaging to build a connectomic map, the main measures used to analyze connectomic data, and an introduction to advanced topics in the field Helps readers determine how to best use fMRI/DTI data to make a brain network, how to analyze that network using graph theory, and how to compare and interpret findings Assumes no prior knowledge beyond basic training in human MRI, and adopts a consistent format across chapters to facilitate learning and linking of different concepts
