PLoS One 2013 Nicolás Fayed, Yolanda López-del-hoyo, Eva Andres et al.
This work aimed to determine whether (1)H magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) are correlated with years of meditation and psychological variables in long-term Zen meditators compared to healthy non-meditator controls. Design. Controlled, cross-sectional study. Sample. Meditators were...
