	abstract = {Presurgical planning for brain tumor resection aims at delineating eloquent tissue in the vicinity of the lesion to spare during surgery. To this end, non-invasive neuroimaging techniques such as functional MRI and diffusion weighted imaging fiber tracking are currently employed. However, taking into account this information is often still insufficient, as the complex non-linear dynamics of the brain impede straightforward prediction of functional outcome after surgical intervention. Large-scale brain network modeling carries the potential to bridge this gap by integrating neuroimaging data with biophysically based models to predict collective brain dynamics. As a first step in this direction, an appropriate computational model has to be selected, after which suitable model parameter values have to be determined. To this end, we simulated large-scale brain dynamics in 25 brain tumor patients and 11 control subjects using The Virtual Brain, an open-source neuroinformatics platform. Local and global model parameters of the Reduced Wong-Wang model were individually optimized and compared between brain tumor patients and control subjects. In addition, the relationship between model parameters and structural network topology and cognitive performance was assessed. Results showed (1) significantly improved prediction accuracy of individual functional connectivity when using individually optimized model parameters; (2) local model parameters can differentiate between regions directly affected by a tumor, regions distant from a tumor, and regions in a healthy brain; and (3) interesting associations between individually optimized model parameters and structural network topology and cognitive performance.},

	abstract = {Cerebral blood flow (CBF) can be estimated non-invasively with arterial spin labeling (ASL). Multi-post-labeling-delay (PLD) pseudo-continuous ASL (PCASL) allows for accurate CBF estimation by sampling the dynamic perfusion signal at different PLDs and fitting a model to the perfusion data. Unfortunately, ASL difference images have a low SNR. Therefore, CBF estimation in multi-PLD PCASL is imprecise, unless a large number of images is acquired (long scan time) or spatial resolution is lowered significantly. It has been shown that model-based super-resolution reconstruction (SRR) techniques can improve the trade-off between SNR, spatial resolution and acquisition time. The results presented in this work show the promising potential of SRR ASL to outperform conventional ASL readout schemes in terms of achievable precision of HR perfusion measurements in a given acquisition time.},
