Review : Functional Neuroimaging of Memory

Gregory McCarthy

Neuropsychology Laboratory VA Medical Center West Haven, Connecticut Section of Neurosurgery and Department of Neurology Yale University School of Medicine New Haven, Connecticut

Cognitive neuroscientists have acquired powerful new tools for studying the functional neuroanatomy of the human brain. Traditional methods such as lesion analysis have been supplemented with electrical and mag netic field recording techniques that can measure the informational transactions of the brain in the scale of milliseconds and neuroimaging techniques that can provide structural details of the brain to a fraction of a millimeter. The most powerful new methods have been functional imaging techniques in which brain activity engendered by a sensory, motor, or cognitive task causes an increase in local blood flow and metabolism that can be imaged with high resolution. This article reviews recent progress in functional neuroimaging, with special emphasis on understanding the neural substrates of memory. The Neuroscientist 1:155-163, 1995
