4 Tesla gradient recalled echo characteristics of photic stimulation‐induced signal changes in the human primary visual cortex

Menon, Ravi S., Ogawa, Seiji, Tank, David W., Uǧurbil, Kǎmil·1993·Magnetic Resonance in Medicine

Abstract

Multi‐echo measurements of photic stimulation‐induced signal changes in human visual cortex were made at 4 Tesla in order to quantify the nature of the signal change and its vascular origin, and to determine the optimum echo time for detection of the changes. Utilizing high resolution images, two distinct regions (ascribed to be microvasculature and visible venous vessels) were identified as giving rise to the signal increase. The fractional signal changes in gray matter areas depended linearly on echo time (TE) in the range of 10 to 60 ms and extrapolated to virtually zero for TE = 0, indicating that in‐flow effects secondary to stimulation‐induced blood flow increases were negligible in our functional imaging studies; instead, signal change due to photic stimulation originated from the increase in the apparent transverse relaxation rate, 1/T2*. This decrease in (1/T2*, brought about by the alterations in hemodynamic parameters, was 1.3 ± 0.4 s−1 for gray matter and 3.0 ± 0.7 s−1 (averaged over 10 individuals) for venous vessels visible in the images. The optimum choice of echo time was found to be TE ≥ T2*.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
