fMRI data analysis involves coregistration and spatial normalization to align functional and structural images, reduce variability, and prepare data for statistical analysis. Coregistration aligns images from different modalities within subjects, while spatial normalization achieves precise anatomic

Coregistration and Spatial Normalization are essential steps in fMRI data preprocessing to ensure accurate alignment of functional and structural images for further analysis. Coregistration involves aligning images from different modalities within the same individual, while spatial normalization aim

Spatial distortion artifacts in EPI sequences (BOLD or DWI) due to slow sampling rates in the phase encoding direction can be corrected using B0/spatial field mapping techniques. This correction requires obtaining field maps under the same B0 shimming conditions and with identical FoV and adjustment

Dr. Verne Caviness, along with colleagues David Kennedy and Pauline Filipek, founded the Center for Morphometric Analysis (CMA) in 1988 at MGH, playing a significant role in the development of computer-assisted programs for precise volumetric imaging of the human brain using MRI. The CMA's early ach

Understanding the importance of correctly designing fMRI experiments is crucial for testing specific hypotheses by manipulating stimulus types, timing, and participant instructions. Types of experimental designs include categorical, factorial, and parametric designs, each serving different purposes
