This book addresses the technical problems of image registration, inter-subject and intra-subject analysis, and explores the synergistic advantages of multimodal integration.;Section one discusses statistical analysis of results and neural network modelling. Section two addresses technical issues associated with techniques such as factors of blood flow metabolism. Section three investigates database management, and section four addresses multi-model integration.
