Simultaneous multislice imaging (SMS) using parallel image reconstruction has rapidly
advanced to become a major imaging technique. The primary benefit is an acceleration in …

Abstract The Human Connectome Project consortium led by Washington University,
University of Minnesota, and Oxford University is undertaking a systematic effort to map …

Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rfMRI) allows one to study functional
connectivity in the brain by acquiring fMRI data while subjects lie inactive in the MRI …

Abstract The Human Connectome Project (HCP) relies primarily on three complementary
magnetic resonance (MR) methods. These are: 1) resting state functional MR imaging …

Parallel imaging in the form of multiband radiofrequency excitation, together with reduced k‐
space coverage in the phase‐encode direction, was applied to human gradient echo …

Summary Ultra-slow,∼ 0.1-Hz variations in the oxygenation level of brain blood are widely
used as an fMRI-based surrogate of" resting-state" neuronal activity. The temporal …

We report that visual stimulation produces an easily detectable (5-20%) transient increase in
the intensity of water proton magnetic resonance signals in human primary visual cortex in …

A major methodological challenge of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is its
high sensitivity to haemodynamic fluctuations in the scalp. Superficial fluctuations contribute …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a methodology for detecting dynamic
patterns of activity in the working human brain. Although the initial discoveries that led to …

Fast fMRI enables the detection of neural dynamics over timescales of hundreds of
milliseconds, suggesting it may provide a new avenue for studying subsecond neural …
