CABRALES PAFFEN, Amelia. Neuropsychology and the localization of superior brain functions in fMRI with task studies. Acta Neurol Colomb. [online]. 2015, vol.31, n.1, pp.92-100. ISSN 0120-8748. https://doi.org/10.22379/2422402214.
To highlight the capacity of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) with tasks in order to measure different higher brain functions by running paradigms that produce brain activation in the regions involved. Highlighting the importance of the neuropsychologist in creating paradigms and interpreting results. A non-systematic review of the scientific literature contained in the databases was conducted: Rev Neurol, Neurology, Radiología, Neuroimage, J Neuroimaging, Science, Brain, Neuroscience and biobehavioral reviews, journal of neuroscience, Eur J Radiol, Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Neurosurgery, Neuroimagingclin, Neuropsicologia Latinoamericana, International Journal of Neuroscience, Biol Psychiatry, Psychol Med, Arch Gen Psychiatry, Psychiatry Res Neuroimaging, Neuro Report, Neuron, J ClinExpNeuropsychol , Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, Ann Neurol Neurobiol Aging, Neurosci Lett, Journal of Neuroscience. The descriptors used were: "functional MRI", "Paradigms" and "Neuropsychology". Papers in Spanish and English of any kind were selected since the start of indexing the primary source until November 2014. 42 articles were retrieved. The following concepts were analyzed: functional magnetic resonance imaging, neuropsychology, higher brain functions, activated brain areas paradigms. The neural activation maps confirm the simultaneous involvement of different brain areas, even distant ones, during the execution of paradigms. Neuropsychologist participation within the multidisciplinary team is very important for its deep understanding of the factors involved in the performance of different cognitive tasks potentially assessable by fMRI.
