Download or read book Membrane Potential Imaging in the Nervous System written by Marco Canepari and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-10-19 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is structured in five sections, each containing several chapters written by experts and major contributors to particular topics. The volume starts with a historical perspective and fundamental principles of membrane potential imaging and continues to cover the measurement of membrane potential signals from dendrites and axons of individual neurons, measurements of the activity of many neurons with single cell resolution, monitoring of population signals from the nervous system, and concludes with the overview of new approaches to voltage-imaging. The book is targeted at all scientists interested in this mature but also rapidly expanding imaging approach.
