-
摘要: 鸣禽鸣啭学习与记忆机制的研究是当今神经科学领域的一个特色分支,近年来该领域的研究迅猛发展.光声成像是一种新型无损脑功能成像技术,相对于传统成像技术具有很多优点.本文首次采用光声成像技术对鸣禽斑胸草雀脑进行研究,以期为揭示鸣禽鸣唱机制提供新的手段.Abstract: Song learning and memory of songbirds is a focus in neuroscience, and have a rapid development in recent years. Photoacoustic tomography is a new, developing imaging technique. We first apply the photoacoustic tomography in brain of songbirds, and try to provide a new means for the brain research in songbirds.
