Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Several functional brain imaging techniques have been developed, including electroencephalography (EEC), magnetoencephalography (MEG), positron emission tomography (PET), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). These techniques are currently being applied to particular types of experiments depending on the purpose of the research and various technical considerations. In this tutorial presentation, I will first survey the characteristics of each functional brain imaging technique and will present a roll of fMIRI in brain research. Next, I will introduce recent topics related to research on auditory perception, speech production and the language process from results obtained in research projects using an fMRI scanner at the ATR Brain Activity Imaging Center (BAIC). Finally, I will mention some technical improvements intended to eliminate various problems facing exploratory research in these fields. I hope to demonstrate that BAIC can play an important role as a support center for brain researchers.
