Description
Book SynopsisThese are exciting times for the field of optical imaging of brain function. Rapid developments in theory and technology continue to considerably advance understanding of brain function. Reflecting changes in the field during the past five years, the second edition of In Vivo Optical Imaging of Brain Function describes state-of-the-art techniques and their applications for the growing field of functional imaging in the live brain using optical imaging techniques.
New in the Second Edition:
- Voltage-sensitive dyes imaging in awake behaving animals
- Imaging based on genetically encoded probes
- Imaging of mitochondrial auto-fluorescence as a tool for cortical mapping
- Using pH-sensitive dyes for functional mapping
- Modulated imaging
- Calcium imaging of neuronal activity using 2-photon
