Mapping of motion artefact in fMRI
Nováková, Marie ; Kremláček, Jan (referee) ; Jan, Jiří (advisor)
This thesis summarizes a theory of magnetic resonance and the method of functional magnetic resonance. It is focused on the influence of motion artifacts and image preprocessing methods, especially realign. It deals with the possibility of using movement parameters obtained in the process of alignment of functional scans to create maps that show the expression of motion artifacts. In this thesis, three different methods were designed, implemented a tested. These methods lead to the creation of probability, power and statistical group maps showing areas typically affected by movement artifacts.

Inverse values of EEG signal power in joint EEG-fMRI analysis
Sanetrníková, Dominika ; Kolář, Radim (referee) ; Labounek, René (advisor)
The first part of this thesis summarizes the basic theory of brain activity measurement using the BOLD signal and scalp EEG, the effect of noise phenomena in the data and its suppression, the merger of the fusion of the measured data using the general linear model and the current implementation of computational algorithms in the software library EEG Regressor Builder 1.0. Within the own solution of this thesis, the changes of the software library to version 1.1 were realized according to the requirements of the bachelor thesis. The hypothesis that temporal changes of the EEG relative band power (20 - 40Hz) has the same spatial correlates with the BOLD signal as the inverse power in the frequency range 0-12Hz. The hypothesis was rejected based on the calculation of similarity criterions between 3D activation maps for different parameter settings of the joint analysis calculations. As an appropriate criterions were chosen the correlation coefficient and the cosine criterion. The Euclidean distance was proved to be unfit. Also it was proved the inverse power value of EEG signal in the given frequency band brings to the common EEG-fMRI analysis an anti-correlated signal to the normal absolute power in the same frequency band. Furthermore the influence of regressors describing motion artifacts reduces the number of supra-thresholded voxels.
