Resting-state BOLD functional connectivity depends on the heterogeneity of capillary transit times in the human brain A combined lesion and simulation study about the influence of blood flow response timing
Functional connectivity (FC) derived from blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging at rest (rs-fMRI), is commonly interpreted as indicator of neuronal connectivity.In a number of brain disorders, however, metabolic, vascular, and hemodynamic impairments can be expected to alter BOLD-FC independently from neuron
