This abstract proposes a new joint fMRI and functional FDG-PET (fPET) ICA analysis method, coherent ICA, based on the simultaneously acquired dual-modality imaging data. It applies ICA on the spatiotemporal data sets from both modalities to obtain coherent activation maps and preserve their correspondent temporal information, which is not retained by existing methods. The preserved temporal information can potentially be used to investigate the interaction between BOLD signal and other metabolism change measured by fPET.
