Coverage includes all aspects of PET technology. Includes chapters on somatosensory, motor and visual systems, and higher-order processes such as attention, memory, learning, intention and language. The clinical usefulness of PET is discussed in relation to psychiatric illness and to functional recovery after brain injury.Ciba Foundation symposium ;163.BrainTomographyCongressesBrainMetabolismCongressesCerebral circulationCongressesElectronic books.BrainTomographyBrainMetabolismCerebral circulation612.8612.82Symposium on Exploring Brain Functional Anatomy with Positron Tomography(1991 :Ciba Foundation)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910144727703321Exploring brain functional anatomy with positron tomography1954849UNINA
