Synopsis: Resting state functional magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) has been conventionally used to study
functional connectivity between cortical regions. We
present here a novel technique that may be used to
depict functional pathways of the human brain. A key
concept proposed is spatio-temporal correlation tensor,
which is constructed on the basis of spatio-temporal
analyses of resting state MRI signals. Our in vivo
experiments demonstrate that the technique holds a great
potential of directly mapping structure-function
relations in the human brain.
