In this study we introduced a powerful new method to analyze resting state functional connectivity. The MSRA approach integrates classical seed based correlation and modern graph-theory. In comparison to two undirected graph-theoretical approaches, it resembles ICA components best and is characterized by its high specificity and reproducibility. In combination with an adaptation of the network based statistics to paired samples, it promises to be a powerful tool to investigate short term modulations of sensory stimuli related resting state connectivity and ultimately impact our understanding of basic brain functions like fear to higher functions such as plasticity, learning and memory.
