Mystical strategies and performative discourse in the theologia mystica of Teresa of Avila: A Wittgensteinian analysis
The thesis argues that a Wittgensteinian approach to the 'mystical' writings of a 'mystical theologian' such as Teresa of Avila reveals that rather than exhibiting an ontological mysticism these writings are better understood as enacting what are termed 'mystical strategies' or 'performative discourse'. The notion that both Wittgenstein and Teresa employ what are termed 'therapeutic or transformational strategies' to effect change in their readers is central to its argument. In this respect the thesis concludes that their writing is fundamentally transformational in character.EThOS - Electronic Theses Online ServiceGBUnited Kingdo
Use of fMRI activation paradigms: A presurgical tool for mapping brain function
In this paper, we focus our attention on the
phenomena at the root of eloquent brain maps,
the description of some activation paradigms,
their main presurgical application and some new
approaches to fMRI
Functional MRI at 3.0 tesla
The localization of the BOLD signal
becomes reliable at high MR fields. This
allows not only to confirm and deepen many
known functional phenomena but also to throw
new light in many aspects of the physiology and
pathology of the brai

7 T MR: From basic research to human applications
The recent ultra-high field magnetic resonance (UHF MR, ≥7 T) scanners are demonstrating incredible potential, especially in the analysis of cerebral tissues. The technological achievements and the principles associated with the use of 7 T MRI systems are now being turned to applications on human, increasing both physiological and physiopathological knowledge as prelude to future clinical applications
