Introduction to Neuroimaging Analysis (Oxford Neuroimaging Primers)

Mark Jenkinson is the best researcher in methodology I know. I have always appreciate his knowlege, his patience in the FSL's list forum. I will be always in debt in relation to all I have learned with him. I wish I could have learned by his side from the very beginning.Congratulations for this book Mark!Best,Rosalia

Great introductory book to NeuroImaging Analysis . Another book I recommend "Insight into Images: Principles and Practice for Segmentation, Registration, and Image Analysis" by Terry S. Yoo

Up to date and concise. Great overview of neuroimaging.

Ok

I cannot recommend this book enough! A fantastic resource for anyone planning to perform their own neuroimaging analyses. Clear and detailed throughout.

I needed to learn brain image analysis basics and then go advanced. I was struggling as what I kew was piecemeal and disjointed. This book gave me the overview and foundation I needed to become a generalist in structural brain magnetic resonance (MR) image analysis and learn established analysis tools. It provides a brief overview of a variety of brain MR imaging techniques as well, but the focus is on structural brain MR imaging using the FSL software. It is an accessible book to the novice who's just beginning. It provides what you need and tells you what you don't need to know yet. It's obvious the authors are skilled at teaching. They don't leave the reader hanging or in need of constantly looking back at concepts earlier. If they sense there might be confusion they explain it or use an illustration. There are nice workflows and examples using FSL software for image analysis and FSLeyes software for viewing the results with sample images and step by step instructions on their website. You learn to present your work professionally. They show you what to look for for quality assurance and what common mistakes to be on the lookout for. When it gets too technical or uncommon they provide a sample and then tell you to talk to the technician or MR-physicist for help. In this way, they don't overwhelm the reader. I used their supplementary PDF books on their website too.The book provides that anchor one needs to start understanding structural image analysis using any software. With this foundation I've begun feeling comfortable reading the documentation of FSL, Nypipe for FSL, CAT12 and ANTs, and using their code. I had some experience beforehand but not this good of an understanding.I have purchased the other two books on resting state functional MRI and Arterial Spin Labelling and will be reading them as well. If only there were more on diffusion MR imaging and positron emission tomography.

This book is good for casual referencing but is not the book to go to if you are looking for an in depth collection of neuroimaging analysis. Other books that specializes in their respective modalities will often include a section of analysis or methods to accompany their books.

For any undergraduate in the field of neuroimaging analysis, this book has great value in introducing MRI principles and acquisition types to the field of neuroimaging analysis.Easy to understand and must have !
