Functional MRI using super-resolved spatiotemporal encoding.
Recently, new ultrafast imaging sequences such as rapid acquisition by sequential excitation and refocusing (RASER) and hybrid spatiotemporal encoding (SPEN) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been proposed, in which the phase encoding of conventional echo planar imaging (EPI) is replaced with a SPEN. In contrast to EPI, SPEN provides significantly higher immunity to frequency heterogeneitie...
متن کاملSuper-resolved parallel MRI by spatiotemporal encoding.
Recent studies described an "ultrafast" scanning method based on spatiotemporal (SPEN) principles. SPEN demonstrates numerous potential advantages over EPI-based alternatives, at no additional expense in experimental complexity. An important aspect that SPEN still needs to achieve for providing a competitive ultrafast MRI acquisition alternative, entails exploiting parallel imaging algorithms w...
متن کاملFunctional Magnetic Resonance Imaging using Super-Resolved Spatially-Encoded MRI
Introduction The robustness of detecting activation in fMRI data is affected by the type of imaging sequence and reconstruction algorithm used. This facet of functional MRI experiments, is expressed for example in the different sensitivity and specificity of Spin-Echo (SE) EPI and Gradient-Echo (GE) EPI sequences. Recent development of a new single-scan imaging scheme provides an alternative to...
متن کاملMental chronometry using latency-resolved functional MRI.
Vascular responses to neural activity are exploited as the basis of a number of brain imaging techniques. The vascular response is thought to be too slow to resolve the temporal sequence of events involved in cognitive tasks, and hence, imaging studies of mental chronometry have relied on techniques such as the evoked potential. Using rapid functional MRI (fMRI) of single trials of two simple b...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal wavelet analysis for functional MRI.
Characterizing the spatiotemporal behavior of the BOLD signal in functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) is a central issue in understanding brain function. While the nature of functional activation clusters is fundamentally heterogeneous, many current analysis approaches use spatially invariant models that can degrade anatomic boundaries and distort the underlying spatiotemporal signal. F...
