Some Useful Links

This list of links includes some that we have found useful.  It is not an exhaustive list and it will grow.  We have found that many Web pages with information about medical diagnosis disappear.  All of these links were accessible when we entered them here.  If you find that a page has disappeared please report it to us.  (Click here.)

If you know of other good Web-based resources, we would appreciate hearing from you about them. (Click here)

The Adelaide MRI Website
Many links to other resources as well as their own.

fMRI for Newbies
The book with the above title is "coming soon".  In the meantime the PowerPoint slides which are linked on this page are very informative.
