This preliminary study investigated perfusion changes
associated with real-time fMRI neurofeedback training
targeting motor cortex. Six right-handed healthy
volunteers underwent five days neurofeedback training
to self-regulate the brain activity within the left
motor cortex using the finger tapping imagery task for
the dominant right hand. Pre- to post-training
comparison revealed increased CBF in the left motor and
somatosensory cortex as well as the visual cortex but
decreased CBF in the right anterior dorsolateral
prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), which might provide
interesting insight into the mechanism of neurofeedback
training.
