功能性磁共振成象在针刺研究中的应用进展及所面临的问题

功能性磁共振成像(fMRI)作为一种无创的、即时的、无辐射的现代神经影像技术,已经广泛运用于针刺对大脑产生效应的研究当中。但从实验设计和实验影响因素等方面来看,这种原理的应用仍存在很多不足。通过对此技术在针刺研究应用进展的总结,来掌握其发展动态,并分析目前存在的问题,指出下一步研究方向,为进一步研究奠定基础。

Research Progress and Problem of Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Acupuncture Study

Since the mid of 1990s,acupuncture study using functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI) has drawn increasing attention of neuroscientists.It opens a new window to explore the relationship between functional network of human brain and therapy of acupuncture.However,fundamental questions concerning the interpretation of fMRI data abound,as the conclusions drawn often ignore the actual interference of the environment.Here I give an overview of the current state of fMRI using on acupuncture research,experime...
