Polarized Light Imaging (PLI) has evolved into a powerful neuroimaging tool to analyze fiber tracts with submillimeter resolution in microtome sections of postmortem human brain tissue. In PLI polarized light changes its polarization state while passing through birefringent tissue, i.e., myelinated axons, which results in sinusoidal signals that ch...
Recently, magnetoencephalography (MEG) based real-time brain computing interfaces (BCI) have been developed to enable novel and promising methods of neuroscience research and therapy. Artifact rejection prior to source localization largely enhances the localization accuracy. However, many BCI approaches neglect real-time artifact removal due to its...
The amplitude of the profile quantifies the phase retardation δ induced to the light wave by the myelin. This phase retardation is a function of the light wavelength λ, the section thickness d, the birefringence Δn of the myelin, and the inclination angle α. The transmittance I0 denotes the intensity of the incident light modified by local extincti...
Polarized light imaging (PLI) enables the visualization of fiber tracts with high spatial resolution in microtome sections of postmortem brains. Vectors of the fiber orientation defined by inclination and direction angles can directly be derived from the optical signals employed by PLI analysis. The polarization state of light propagating through a...
