Abstract
When neural activity increases in a region of the brain, the local magnetic resonance signal produced in that part of the brain increases by a small amount owing to changes in blood oxygenation. This blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) effect is the basis for most functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies done today to map patterns of activation in the working human brain. In this tutorial we will review the main techniques used to analyze fMRI data.
