Synopsis
Keywords: Neuro: Brain function, Neuro: Brain
The aim of my lecture is to provide physicists and other non-radiologists with a brief introduction to some of the salient functional anatomy of the brain as elucidated by fMRI. The emphasis will be on the primary motor and language areas.Acknowledgements
