He authored more than 450 papers referenced in PubMed, has an H-factor of 60 and is the co-author of the books “Magnetic resonance in Dementia” and “Clinical applications of functional brain MRI”. In 2011, he edited the book “Neuroimaging in Dementia”, of which the Chinese translated version will be published by Peking University Medical Press later this year.
