Imaging of the optic disk in caring for patients with glaucoma: ophthalmoscopy and photography remain the gold standard.

abstract：:Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a powerful, non-invasive technique for mapping human brain function. Because of the robust signal intensity changes associated with visual stimuli, fMRI is particularly useful for studying visual cortex (including both striate and extrastriate cortex). Also, activation o...
