Figure 1:

Discovered deviations in the brain of patients with TS mapped through (a) diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and (b) connectivity; (c) a schematic of the setup of rtfMRI-nf, showing an overview of the required instruments and sequence of events; (d) when comparing the strategic thinking of assumed vegetative patients with that of healthy controls, it was discovered that these patients were, in fact, not vegetative. Figures (a,b,c,d) from ([1],[2],[3],[4]), respectively.

Figure 2:

(a) regions exhibiting decreased activity in the brain during inhibition in patients with ADHD includes SMA and rIFG; (b) methylphenidate - a common drug to treat ADHD - stimulates rIFG and decreases activity in SMA; (c) a mapping of regions with deviations correlating with TS symptoms includes SMA and rIFG; (d) conscious tic control and attention may sum to decrease tics in adult TS patients, the two potentially controlled by SMA and rIFG, respectively. Figures (a,b,c,d) from ([53],[54],[55],[56]), respectively.

Figure 3:

(a) motor control through the tripartite model; (b) how the hyperdirect pathway bypasses the striatum wrt motor inhibition; (c) a common subthalamic nucleus placement of the DBS electrode in Parkinsons Disease patients, stimulating the hyperdirect pathway ; (d) an update of the tripartite model. Figures (a,b,c,d) from ([69],[69],[70],[71]), respectively.

Figure 4:

(a) a memory palace used in 1511 AD, providing a virtual context to what was to be remembered; (b) how context in VR was used in deceived participants, indicating how context may aid memory; (c) a VR game used during an rtfMRI-nf run to assess susceptibility for developing Alzheimer’s disease; (d) a hypothesized model for how context reinstatement may aid memory.

Figure 5:

Examples from the ROI extraction and later adaptation. (a) SMA in the right hemisphere as directly shown through the SPM display code shown earlier; (b) the combined SMA in MNI space shown in green, and SMA realigned according to the pre-fMRI volume of a person having gone through the SPM adaptation algorithm (in red), the required shift according to fMRI-space is evident; (c) the same shifted ROI from (b) shown according to the fMRI volume of the person to be trained; (d) the same ROI from (b-c) overlaid the pre-fMRI of a different person having gone through the rtfMRI-nf, the need for realignment is evident.
