Another Leap Forward in Connectome Imaging of the Brain
Since the 1990s, the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital has led the development and application of the powerful technique "Connectome" imaging, which reveals the organization of the human brain by tracking the movement of water molecules in the brain. In 2023...
