Patients with severe DoC in their subacute and chronic stages will be enrolled.Results of comprehensive Coma Recovery Scale-Revised (CRS-R), non-task functional magneticresonance imaging (FMRI), and electroencephalography (EEG) data will be collected in additionto ordinary laboratory and neuroimaging exams. Base on these data, large-scale functional brainnetworks corresponding to a spectrum of deteriorated consciousness will be built.In the second part, data will be collected at the NTU Hospital (NTUH), and will be analyzed in theNTU. Adult patients with severe DoC will be enrolled, and their results of Coma RecoveryScale-Revised (CRS-R), and simultaneous functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI) andelectroencephalography (EEG) data will be collected during acute and subacute stages. Data willbe used to verify the network model built in the first stage, and to find out neuroimagingbiomarkers correlated to the progress of the DoC.This project integrate current practice in diagnosis of severe DoC, moreover, it will deepen ourknowledge on the process involved in loosing/maintaining/recovering of consciousness throughnovel brain network analysis and quantification using a multimodality approach. The results willalso provide novel neuroimaging biomarkers for patients with severe DoC and have a chance toshed light on the management of these patients.意識意識疾病大腦網路功能性磁振造影腦電波consciousnessdisorders of consciousness (DoC)brain networksFMRIEEGSevere Disorders of Consciousness: Large-Scale Brain Network Analysis and Quantification through a Multimodality Approach
