@tgbugs not sure if that is the definition we should use for this term. that seems a community specific interpretation, maybe the umbrella approach would be better here?
brain mapping (generic, either anatomical or functional or both)
-> anatomical brain mapping vs
-> functional brain mapping
??
I think this is maybe better fitting:
Brain mapping is a set of neuroscience techniques predicated on the mapping of (biological) quantities or properties onto spatial representations of the (human or non-human) brain resulting in maps. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_mapping

This is likely more generic than just a subset of imaging techniques. This almost rises to the level of a experimental approach because it does not specify any concrete technique but instead describes an entire family of techniques that correlate some measurement of physiology, function, activity, etc. with anatomy or anatomical location. We think that this probably also includes cases where only the anatomy itself is mapped, that is, e.g. a structural MRI would count as brain mapping. |
