IMAGING


We have been and still are using imaging methods, in particular: ultrasound, Doppler, MRI, and PET, trying to improve their diagnostic capabilities or to describe the morphofunctional characteristics of patients and healthy subjects

ONGOING PROJECTS

Application of predictive models for the evaluation of sulci, using MRI data available on public databases (ADNI)

​Genetic imaging studies on aging and neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, healthy controls)​

Neurostimulation for rehabilitation purposes in psychiatric and neurological diseases with the use of personalized protocols through
neurophysiological measures (TMS-EEG, fMRI)
