Imaging Genetics (PDF)

Imaging Genetics is an informative book that contains the latest research in imaging genetics methods for revealing associations between imaging and genetic variables. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the present state-of-the-art in the field, edited and written by reputable researchers. Therefore, this book is beneficial for both students and researchers, new and experienced, in the imaging genetics field. The book captures the relationships between DNA variation and measurements derived from anatomical or functional imaging data, commonly in the context of a disorder. Imaging genetics offers more valuable and rich insights into the underlying, complex biological mechanisms compared to traditional genetic analysis reliant on classical phenotypes like clinical symptoms.
