Definition of Functional ultrasound imaging
Functional ultrasound imaging (fUS or fUSI) is a medical ultrasound imaging technique for detecting or measuring changes in neural activities or metabolism, such as brain activity loci, typically through measuring hemodynamic (blood flow) changes. It is an extension of Doppler ultrasonography.
