Functional connectivity in the default network during resting state is preserved in a vegetative but not in a brain dead patient

Recent studies on spontaneous fluctuations in the functional MRI blood oxygen level‐dependent (BOLD) signal in awake healthy subjects showed the presence of coherent fluctuations among functionally defined neuroanatomical networks. However, the functional significance of these spontaneous BOLD fluct...
