Summary

In the current study, the investigators propose to test: (1) whether brain activation and connectivity in a resting state, assessed by ASL perfusion MRI, BOLD fMRI, and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) predicts smoking relapse, and (2) whether brain activation, assessed by BOLD fMRI during performance of neurobehavioral probes for executive cognitive function, stress and cue reactivity, predicts smoking relapse.
