Summary

Measuring brain perfusion is biased by a inter- and intrasubject variability, caused by physiological and lifestyle factors. In this study, the investigators want to investigate the effects of a different mood state (neutral, positive and negative mood), induced using subjects own memories, on both global and regional cerebral perfusion, measured with arterial spin labeling.

Conditions

BEHAVIORALMood induction (using own memories)Subjects deliver three positive, three negative and three neutral memories 30 seconds reliving a memory - answering questions about the memory - reliving memory for 2 minutes during ASL-MRI
DEVICEArterial spin labeling MRISingle PLD PCASL
DEVICEPhysiological monitoringDuring MRI: heart rate, end-tidal CO2, respiratory rate and skin conductance
