Handbook of Pediatric Brain Imaging: Methods and Applications presents state-of-the-art research on pediatric brain image acquisition and analysis from a broad range of imaging modalities, including MRI, EEG and MEG. With rapidly developing methods and applications of MRI, this book strongly emphasizes pediatric brain MRI, elaborating on the sub-categories of structure MRI, diffusion MRI, functional MRI, perfusion MRI and other MRI methods. It integrates a pediatric brain imaging perspective into imaging acquisition and analysis methods, covering head motion, small brain sizes, small cerebral blood flow of neonates, dynamic cortical gyrification, white matter tract growth, and much more.

Hao Huang
Hao Huang, PhD, Professor, School of Materials Science and Engineering, Dalian University of Technology; Director, Key Laboratory of Energy Materials and Devices, Liaoning Province; Director, Experimental Center of Materials Science and Engineering, Dalian University of Technology.
Doctorate in 2001-2005 from Changwon National University, Korea; In 2003, he worked as a member of the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) and the United States Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Composite Cooperation Research Group. He joined the Dalian University of Technology in 2005 and taught the doctoral course 'Energy Materials and Devices' for many years. In 2018, He established the Key Laboratory of Energy Materials & Devices (Liaoning Province).
Professor Hao Huang has been committed to the research on the basic science and application technology of energy storage nanomaterials, which has brought breakthroughs to the bottleneck problems in the field of new energy materials, mainly including: (1) Macro fabrication and fine micro-structure control of nanoparticles. He designed the mass production equipment of nanoparticles by arc discharge method. The macro fabrication of multi-type nanoparticles is realized. He clarified the growth mechanism of nanoparticles in the plasmatic environment, and established the structure-activity relationship between the structural characteristics and electrochemical performance. (2) high-density and long-term energy storage of the nanoparticles. The core-shell nanostructure was designed to prevent the pulverization failure caused by volume expansion of the electrode nanomaterials during cyclic energy storage. (3) Correlation between the defect/surface structure of nanoparticles and the electrochemical reactions. The first-principles calculation and experiments are effectively combined to investigate the correlation between the defect/surface structure characteristics of nanoparticles and electrochemical reactions, providing an accurate scientific basis and effective data for the design and screening of new electrode materials.
The author published 3 books including “Key Materials for High-Performance Battery” (Science Press, China), and reported 108 academic papers in academic journals. The research results have been highly affirmed and recognized by experts in this field and research institutions. Over the past decade, more than 100 Ph.D and MA. students have been graduated from his lab and obtained important positions in the industries of advanced energy materials.
