Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical image processing and analysis, in particular to a method for Granger causality analysis of brain nuclei based on RYGB surgery for weight loss. It can be used to describe the mutual causal relationship between nuclei, thus providing imaging evidence for the development of central drug. Background technique
