Abstract
Since the 1968s discovery of receptors for stress hormones (corticosteroids) in the rodent hippocampus, a tremendous amount of data has been gathered on the specific and somewhat isolated role of the hippocampus in stress reactivity. The hippocampal sensitivity to stress has also been extended in order to explain the negative impact of stress and related stress hormones on animal and human cognitive function. As a consequence, a majority of studies now uses the stress-hippocampus link as a working hypothesis in setting up experimental protocols. However, in the last decade, new data were gathered showing that stress impacts on many cortical and subcortical brain structures other than the hippocampus. The goal of this paper is to summarize the four major arguments previously used in order to confirm the stress-hippocampus link, and to describe new data showing the implication of other brain regions for each of these previously used arguments. The conclusion of this analysis will be that scientists should gain from extending the impact of stress hormones to other brain regions, since hormonal functions on the brain are best explained by their modulatory role on various brain structures, rather than by their unique impact on one particular brain region.

Abstract
Two simple methodologies for correcting the errors in T2 maps for phantom measurements are presented; they both give accurate MRI maps with a low coefficient of variation (CV). The rate correction method is based on an equation relating the true T2 (T2,t) and that determined experimentally (T2,exp) for homogenous phantoms. The response matrix method is a phenomenological analysis of the difference between T2,exp and T2,t, from which correction factors are computed for a range of T2 values and for every pixel of an image. The factors were obtained from phantoms filled with a homogeneous gelatin gel and having different T2,t values. The CV in homogeneous phantom measurements were reduced from 2.5-4.0% to approximately 0.6-2.0% for T2,t values ranging from 180-600 ms. Examples are shown for the correction of T2 maps of phantoms filled with polymer dosimeter gel irradiated with photon beams from a linear accelerator. The methodologies presented can easily be implemented on a clinical MRI scanner.

Abstract
The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spin-spin relaxation time (T2) is related to the radiation-dependent concentration of polymer formed in polymer gel dosimeters manufactured from monomers in an aqueous gelatin matrix. Changes in T2 with time post-irradiation have been reported in the literature but their nature is not fully understood. We investigated those changes with time after irradiation using FT-Raman spectroscopy and the precise determination of T2 at high magnetic field in a polymer gel dosimeter. A model of fast exchange of magnetization taking into account ongoing gelation and strengthening of the gelatin matrix as well as the polymerization of the monomers with time is presented. Published data on the changes of T2 in gelatin gels as a function of post-manufacture time are used and fitted closely by the model presented. The same set of parameters characterizing the variations of T2 in gelatin gels and the increasing concentration of polymer determined from FT-Raman spectroscopy are used successfully in the modelling of irradiated polymer gel dosimeters. Minimal variations in T2 in an irradiated PAG dosimeter are observed after 13 h.

Abstract
Changes in the linear attenuation coefficient of polymer gel dosimeters post-irradiation enable the imaging of dose distributions by x-ray computed tomography (CT). Various compositions of polymer gel dosimeters manufactured from acrylamide (AA), and N,N'-methylene-bis-acrylamide (BIS) comonomers and gelatin or agarose gelling agents were investigated. This work shows that increasing the comonomer concentration increases the CT-dose sensitivity of the polymer gel dosimeter. This can be further increased by replacing gelatin with agarose. Varying the gelatin concentration however does not significantly change the CT-dose sensitivity. Among the compositions studied, dose resolution (D(delta)95%) was found to be optimal for polymer gel dosimeters comprising 5% gelatin, 3% AA, 3% BIS and 89% water.

Abstract
An important objective of functional neuroimaging research is to identify neuroanatomical correlates of memory processes such as encoding and retrieval. In typical studies directed at this goal, however, the to-be-remembered information has been presented in a single perceptual modality. Under these conditions it is not known whether the observed brain activity reflects the studied memory process as such or only the memory process in the given modality. The positron emission tomography (PET) study reported here was designed to identify brain regions involved in encoding and retrieval processes specific to visual and haptic modalities, as well as those common to the two modalities. These latter, common regions, were assumed to be associated with "transperceptual" encoding and retrieval processes. Abstract three-dimensional objects, difficult to describe verbally, served as to-be-remembered materials. A multivariate partial least squares analysis of the PET data revealed that transperceptual encoding processes activated right medial temporal lobe, superior prefrontal cortex bilaterally, and posterior inferior temporal gyrus bilaterally. Transperceptual recognition activations were observed in two right orbitofrontal regions and in anterior cingulate. These results provide initial evidence that some processes involved in memory encoding and retrieval operate beyond perceptual processes and in that sense are transperceptual.

Abstract
The effects of ionizing radiation in different compositions of polymer gel dosimeters are investigated using FT-Raman spectroscopy and NMR T2 relaxation times. The dosimeters are manufactured from different concentrations of comonomers (acrylamide and N,N'-methylene-bis-acrylamide) dispersed in different concentrations of an aqueous gelatin matrix. Results are analysed using a model of fast exchange of magnetization between three proton pools. The fraction of protons in each pool is determined using the known chemical composition of the dosimeter and FT-Raman spectroscopy. Based on these results, the physical and chemical processes in interplay in the dosimeters are examined in view of their effect on the changes in T2. The precipitation of growing macroradicals and the scavenging of free radicals by gelatin are used to explain the rate of polymerization. The model describes the changes in T2 as a function of the absorbed dose up to 50 Gy for the different compositions. This is expected to aid the theoretical design of new, more efficient dosimeters, since it was demonstrated that the optimum dosimeter (i.e, with the lowest dose resolution) must have a range of relaxation times which match the range of T2 values which can be determined with the lowest uncertainty using an MRI scanner.

Abstract
In polymer gel dosimetry using magnetic resonance imaging, the uncertainty in absorbed dose is dependent on the experimental determination of T2. The concept of dose resolution (Dpdelta) of polymer gel dosimeters is developed and applied to the uncertainty in dose related to the uncertainty in T2 from a range of T4 encountered in polymer gel dosimetry. Dpdelta is defined as the minimal separation between two absorbed doses such that they may be distinguished with a given level of confidence, p. The minimum detectable dose (MDD) is Dpdelta as the dose approaches zero. Dpdelta and the minimum detectable dose both give a quantifiable indication of the likely practical limitations and usefulness of the dosimeter. Dpdelta of a polyacrylamide polymer gel dosimeter is presented for customized 32-echo and standard multiple-spin-echo sequences on a clinical MRI scanner. In evaluating uncertainties in T2, a parameter of particular significance in the pulse sequence is the echo spacing (ES). For optimal results, ES should be selected to minimize Dpdelta over a range of doses of interest in polymer gel dosimetry.

Abstract
This study examined the nature of the response programming deficit after frontal cortex lesions through the effects of advance information on sequence initiation time. Nine patients with unilateral frontal lesions, 9 patients with temporal lesions, and 9 controls performed a sequential key-press task involving 4 rapid choice responses to a 4-letter stimulus. Three conditions manipulated the number of responses that subjects knew in advance. The frontal group showed slow initiation times in all conditions. Knowing the first response produced an acceleration of initiation time in all 3 groups. However, knowing 3 responses in advance instead of 1 further accelerated initiation time in the control and temporal groups but not in the frontal group. These results indicate that frontal lesions impair the use of multiple representations during programming. This suggests that the attentional control of response selection is an important element of the response planning deficit.

Abstract
Associations between individual items are the basic building blocks of learning and memory. Functional neuroimaging has now made it possible to study neural correlates of such associations. The present PET study examined three associative encoding conditions differing in the number of words (0, 1, or 2) semantically related to a third word representing the name of a semantic category. A recall task consisting in the presentation of the category names as cues for retrieving the other two members of the triads followed each encoding condition. As expected, retrieval performance increased as the number of semantic exemplars at encoding increased (10%, 43%, 70% items recalled, respectively). A first analysis (partial least squares, PLS) of the PET data identified task-related patterns of activity for associative encoding and cued-recall tasks. A second analysis identified brain regions whose activity was modulated by the number of semantic exemplars at encoding. Some of the task-related brain regions also showed modulated activity by semantic relatedness and consisted in the left inferior prefrontal cortex, right medial temporal lobe, fusiform gyrus and inferior temporal gyrus bilaterally. Some of these regions showed greater activity when words in a triad were unrelated, whereas others did so when the three words were semantically related. These regions have been consistently reported in previous functional neuroimaging studies of associative encoding and may constitute key structures in association formation.

Abstract
A multistudy analysis of positron emission tomography data identified three right prefrontal and two left prefrontal cortical sites, as well as a region in the anterior cingulate gyrus, where neuronal activity is correlated with the maintenance of episodic memory retrieval mode (REMO), a basic and necessary condition of remembering past experiences. The right prefrontal sites were near the frontal pole [Brodmann's area (BA) 10], frontal operculum (BA 47/45), and lateral dorsal area (BA 8/9). The two left prefrontal sites were homotopical with the right frontal pole and opercular sites. The same kinds of REMO sites were not observed in any other cerebral region. Many previous functional neuroimaging studies of episodic memory retrieval have reported activations near the frontal REMO sites identified here, although their function has not been clear. Many of these, too, probably have signaled their involvement in REMO. We propose that REMO activations largely if not entirely account for the frontal hemispheric asymmetry of retrieval as described by the original hemispheric encoding retrieval asymmetry model.

Abstract
Two studies examined the contribution of human frontal cortical areas to the programming of trains of repetitive movements. The first study compared the performance of patients with unilateral frontal excisions, unilateral temporal excisions and controls on the speed of initiation of discrete vs. sequential tapping movements to visual stimuli. The frontal group showed normal initiation times in single taps and a normal execution (pace and accuracy) in sequential taps but they were slower than the other groups at initiating sequential taps indicating a sequence programming problem for repetitions of a single response. A second study examined the functional anatomy of single and sequential taps in eight control subjects using fMRI. Subjects performed flexion/extension movements of the right thumb at either 1 movement/s or as trains of four closely spaced movements at a rate of 1 train/4 s. Statistical analyses revealed that primary sensorimotor cortex and a dorsolateral premotor cortex region were activated in both conditions. Medial frontal activation was not significant in discrete movements but was clearly present in sequential movements and involved SMA and cingulate regions bilaterally. In addition, two other dorsolateral premotor foci of activation were observed in the sequential taps condition. Results from these two experiments converge toward establishing a significant role of dorsolateral and medial premotor regions in the programming of trains of repetitive responses.

Abstract
This article discusses the potential usefulness of brain/ behavior correlational analyses in functional neuroimaging studies of memory, and how such analyses can illuminate the role of medial temporal lobes (MTL) and the hippocampus in episodic and declarative memory processes such as encoding and retrieval. Reanalysis of the results of four previously reported positron emission tomography (PET) studies yielded evidence of both positive and negative between-subjects correlations between recognition-memory accuracy and regional blood flow. The sites of these correlations were in MTL regions as well as in other cortical and subcortical areas, including frontal lobes (Brodmann areas 6, 9, 10, 11, and 47), temporal lobes (BAs 21, 22, and 38), insula, fusiform gyrus, and cuneus/precuneus. These findings were discussed with respect to issues such as localization of the correlation sites, the distinction between brain sites revealed by brain/cognition correlational analyses ("how" sites) and those yielded by cognitive subtraction methods ("what" sites), the tendency of the "how" sites in MTL to occur in the left hemisphere, the tendency of other "how" sites to occur in one or the other hemisphere, rather than bilaterally, and the meaning and "reality" of both brain/behavior correlations and task-related activations. Because of the known incidence of false-positives, all neuroimaging data, including those involving the localization of "what" and "how" memory sites in MTL and other brain regions, need to be interpreted cautiously, and findings of individual studies should not be overinterpreted.

Abstract
A meta-analysis of experimentally induced changes in blood flow ("activations") in positron emission tomography (PET) studies of memory has revealed an orderly functional anatomic pattern: Activations in the hippocampal region associated with episodic memory encoding are located primarily in the rostral portions of the region, whereas activations associated with episodic memory retrieval are located primarily in the caudal portions. These findings are based on an analysis of a sample of 54 "hippocampal encoding and retrieval" activations that were culled from an overall database consisting of 52 published PET studies of memory. We refer to this general pattern of rostrocaudal gradient of encoding and retrieval PET activations as the HIPER (Hippocampal Encoding/Retrieval) model. The model suggests a division of memory-related labor between the rostral and caudal portions of the hippocampal formation. Because functional anatomic pattern of encoding and retrieval activation that defines the HIPER model was unprecedented and unexpected, it is difficult to relate the model to what is already known or thought about functional neuroanatomy of episodic memory in the hippocampal regions. The model is interesting primarily because its exploration may yield fresh insights into the neural basis of human memory.

Abstract
In this study we investigated the contribution of inter-response interference to the sequencing deficit in frontal lobe lesions. We examined inter-response interference in choice sequences through the reduction in inter-response interval produced by stimulus preview when compared with sequences performed without preview. If frontal lobe lesions result in a stronger inter-response interference, the facilitative effect of preview on inter-response interval should be attenuated. We compared nine patients with a frontal excision with nine patients with a temporal excision and nine controls in a task requiring rapid keypress responses to each of five letters in a sequence. In the no-preview condition, the five letters were presented one at a time, immediately following the previous response. In the preview condition, the five letters were presented simultaneously before the response sequence. Patients with a frontal lesion showed slower response times than the other groups. In normal subjects and patients with a temporal lesion, stimulus preview produced the expected reduction of inter-response time and the slowing of sequence initiation. In frontal lesions, however, preview did not reduce inter-response time and exacerbated the slowing of sequence initiation. The results indicate that patients with a frontal lobe lesion show increased interference between adjacent responses as well as a sequence initiation problem.

Abstract
We examined the effects of frontal lesions on the attentional processes surrounding the discrimination of target stimuli by comparing patients with frontal excisions, patients with temporal excisions and controls on target-letter identification in rapid visual streams. Subjects were asked to look at streams of 18-26 letters presented centrally at rates of 6, 8, or 10 letters/sec and to name the two white target letters (T1 and T2) embedded among black letters in each stream. The two target letters were separated by either 0, 2,4, or 6 black letters. Normals and temporals correctly reported T1 at all rates, they showed the expected T2 identification errors peaking 300 msec after T1 at high rate and little T2 interference at lower rates. However, frontals showed T2 interference at the two lower rates and were unable to identify T1 at high rate. The effects observed suggest that an inertia of target discrimination processes contributes to the frontal attention deficits.
