Magneto-acoustic tomography( MAT) is a novel functional imaging approach for imaging electrical conductivity. It combines the advantages of high spatial resolution of ultrasonic imaging and high contrast ratio of electrical impedance tomography. It has potential application value in the early tumor diagnosis and bioelectricity monitoring. The analysis and detection of the magneto acoustic signal have a key role in improving the contrast resolution,imaging resolution and reconstruction accuracy of the electrical conductivity image. In this paper,the amplitude,the waveform characteristics and the frequency characteristics of the magnetic sound signal are review ed by the theoretical research,simulation and testing experiments of the weak magneto-acoustic signal.展开更多

In ischemic stroke subjects, functional MRI showed enhanced activation in Broadmann areas 5, 6, 7, 18, 19, 24, 32, the hypothalamic inferior lobe, the mamiilary body, and the ventral posterolateral nucleus of the left hemisphere, and Broadmann areas 4, 6, 7, 18, 19 and 32 of the right hemisphere, but attenuated activation of Broadmann area 13, the hypothalamic inferior lobe, the posterior lobe of the tonsil of cerebellum, and the culmen of the anterior lobe of hypophysis, in the left hemisphere and Broadmann area 13 in the right hemisphere. In ischemic stroke subjects, a number of deactivated brain areas were enhanced, including Broadmann areas 6, 11,20, 22, 37, and 47, the culmen of the anterior lobe of hypophysis, alae lingulae cerebella, and the posterior lobe of the tonsil of cerebellum of the left hemisphere, and Broadmann areas 8, 37, 45 and 47, the culmen of the anterior lobe of hypophysis, pars tuberalis adenohypophyseos, inferior border of lentiform nucleus, lateral globus pallidus, inferior temporal gyrus, and the parahippocampal gyrus of the right hemisphere. These subjects also exhibited attenuation of a number of deactivated brain areas, including Broadmann area 7. These data suggest that acupuncture at Waiguan specifically alters brain function in regions associated with sensation, vision, and motion in ischemic stroke patients. By contrast, in normal individuals, acupuncture at Waiguan generally activates brain areas associated with insomnia and other functions.展开更多
