Inline BOLD Imaging
Inline BOLD Imaging
Activation map superimposed on original BOLD (Blood Oxygen Level Dependent) images
Activation map superimposed on original BOLD (Blood Oxygen Level Dependent) images
Examination of intrinsic susceptibility changes in different areas of the brain, induced by external stimulation (motor, visual etc.).
Clinical Applications
- Neurosurgical planning
- Assess the effects of neurodegenerative diseases, trauma or stroke on brain function
- Brain mapping
Características y Beneficios
Features
- Automatic real-time calculation of z-score (t-test) maps with Inline Technology, for variable paradigms
- Compatible with single-shot EPI with high susceptibility contrast for fast multi-slice imaging
- ART (Advanced Retrospective Technique) for fully automatic 3D retrospective motion correction, for 6 degrees of freedom (3 translations and 3 rotations)
- Mosaic images for efficient storage and transfer of large data sets
- Inline calculation of t-statistics (t-maps) based on a general linear model (GLM) including the hemodynamic response function and correcting for slow drifts (GLM not available for MAGNETOM ESSENZA)
- Overlay of inline calculated statistical results on the EPI images
