Figure 1. EA stimulation increases hypothalamic functional connectivity in rats.

Figure 1

(A) Rat brains were monitored through fMRI during administration of EA. Functional connectivity increased within the hypothalamus and between the hypothalamus and adjacent brain region with progression of treatment (n=6). (B) A representative example of the increase in signal (over time) in the PVN of a rat receiving acupuncture (n=1).
