Exploring large-scale brain networks in functional MRI.

Increasing emphasis has been recently put on large-scale network processing of brain functions. To explore these networks, many approaches have been proposed in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Their objective is to answer the following two questions: (1) what brain regions are involved in the functional process under investigation? and (2) how do these regions interact? We review some of the key concepts and corresponding methods to cope with both issues.
