Magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the foot were acquired using a Siemens Magnetom Trio 3T MRI scanner (Siemens Medical Systems, Malvern, PA) with previously published acquisition parameters.5 The foot images were obtained in supine position with the foot placed inside a head coil. Coronal images were acquired from the posterior calcaneus to the toes. Transverse images were oriented in a plane perpendicular to the posterior tibialis tendon, just distal of the talocrural joint and progressing proximal. Sagittal images included the entire foot.

Brain activity was recorded with 248 magnetometers in blocks of 30 trials at a sampling rate of 1017.25 Hz using the Magnes 3600 WH MEG system from 4D-Neuroimaging (San Diego, United States of America). This resulted in a total of three ∼13-min MEG recording runs per participant. At the beginning and at the end of each recording run, the participant’s head position was determined. Cardiac and ocular activity were recorded at a sampling rate of 5,000 Hz using electrocardiography (ECG) and electrooculography (EOG) with the BrainAmp ExG MR system from Brain Products (Gilching, Germany). Eye movements were recorded at a sampling rate of 1,000 Hz using the EyeLink 1000 Long Range eye tracker from SR Research (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada).
At the beginning of each recording run and after every six trials, the eye tracker was calibrated using EyeLink’s 13-point calibration method (SR Research Ltd., 2009 ). If the average deviation was above 0.5° or the maximum deviation at one of the calibration points was higher than 2°, the calibration was repeated.
A structural MR scan was performed with a MAGNETOM Trio 3T MRI scanner from Siemens (Munich, Germany) using MPRAGE (Mugler and Brookeman, 1990 (link)). The MR scan was used for the localization of the sources in the brain that gave rise to the signal recorded at the MEG sensors.

Retinotopic Mapping of Visual Cortex Using fMRI

The main details of the experiment being compared to were discussed in Puckett et al. ( 2016), but are briefly outlined here. Six subjects had MRI scanning performed upon them with a Siemens MAGNETOM Trio 3 T MRI scanner. Several T1-weighted anatomical images were collected and then aligned through a rigid body transformation to allow for estimation of distances along the cortex. The functional data were obtained using a gradient-echo sequence with a matrix size of 240×240 and an FOV of 192 mm, resulting in an in-plane resolution of 0.8 mm × 0.8 mm.
Visual stimulation was done on a white screen viewed via a mirror. The stimulus itself was a ring stimulus with a checkerboard pattern at an eccentricity of 2 degrees, flickering every 250 ms. This was presented for 4 s, before being removed for 16.5 s. This cycle was repeated 8 times per run, giving a 3 min run, and 18-25 runs were collected per subject. Retinotopic maps were also obtained to ensure accurate mapping of the activity onto the cortex; this was done using a rotating bowtie stimulus, as in Schira et al. (2009) , for 2 runs of 6 min each.

Multimodal MRI Acquisition Protocol

MR examination was performed on a Siemens 3 T Magnetom Trio MRI scanner (Siemens, Erlangen, Germany) with a 12 channel matrix head coil. Before the first test session, the scanning equipment was introduced by means of a dummy scanner to ensure the participants' comfort with the scanning environment.
A DTI SE-EPI (diffusion weighted single shot spin-echo echoplanar imaging) sequence ([TR] = 8000 ms, [TE] = 91 ms, voxel size = 2.2 × 2.2 × 2.2 mm3, slice thickness = 2.2 mm, [FOV] = 212 × 212 mm2, 60 contiguous sagittal slices covering the entire brain and brainstem) was acquired. A diffusion gradient was applied along 64 noncollinear directions with a b-value of 1000 s/mm2. Additionally, one set of images with no diffusion weighting (b = 0 s/mm2) was acquired.
Moreover, a high resolution T1-weighted image was acquired for anatomical detail using a 3D magnetization prepared rapid acquisition gradient echo (MPRAGE; repetition time [TR] = 2300 ms, echo time [TE] = 2.98 ms, voxel size = 1 × 1 × 1.1 mm3, slice thickness = 1.1 mm, field of view [FOV] = 256 × 240 mm2, 160 contiguous sagittal slices). These structural MRI scans were examined by an expert neuro-radiologist as described previously (see Subsection 2.1). The scan time for the T1 and diffusion MRI scans was approximately 25 min.

Multimodal Brain Imaging Protocol

From all participants, three types of MRI scans were obtained using a Siemens 3T Magnetom Trio MRI scanner with a 32-channel head coil. First, T1-MPRAGE anatomic images were acquired (160 slices, TR = 1750 ms, TE = 4.18 ms, field of view = 256 mm, flip angle = 9°, voxel size = 1 × 1 × 1 mm, TA = 4:05 min). Next, resting-state functional echo-planar imaging (EPI) data were obtained in an interleaved order (42 slices, TR = 2100 ms, TE = 27 ms, field of view = 192 mm, flip angle = 90°, voxel size = 3 × 3 × 3 mm, TA = 6:24 min). After the first 4 control subjects, 5 meningioma patients, and 2 glioma patients were scanned, the fMRI protocol was accidentally changed to a TR of 2400 ms, resulting in a TA of 7:19 min. This has been taken care of in subsequent analyses by inclusion of an additional covariate. During the fMRI scan, participants were instructed to keep their eyes closed and not fall asleep. Finally, a multishell high-angular resolution diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) scan was acquired (60 slices; TR = 8700 ms; TE = 110 ms; field of view = 240 mm; 101 diffusion directions; b-values = 0, 700, 1200, 2800 s/mm2; voxel size = 2.5 × 2.5 × 2.5 mm; TA = 15:14 min). In addition, two DWI b = 0 s/mm2 images were collected with reversed phase-encoding blips for the purpose of correcting susceptibility-induced distortions (Andersson et al., 2003 (link)).

Multimodal MRI Acquisition and Preprocessing Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A Siemens 3T Magnetom Trio MRI scanner with a 12-channel head coil was used to obtain T1 and rs-fMRI image data. T1 images were acquired with the parameters of repetition time (TR)=1,670 ms, echo time (TE)=1.89 ms, field of view=250 mm, flip angle=9°, voxel size=1.0×1.0×1.0 mm3, and 208 sagittal slices. Rs-fMRI images were obtained with the parameters of TR=3,500 ms, TE=30 ms, FOV=240 mm, flip angle=90°, voxel size=1.9×1.9×3.5 mm3, 35 slices, and 116 volumes. Participants were told to close their eyes and be as still as possible during the image acquisition, which lasted for 6 minutes and 58 seconds.
We excluded subjects with head motion exceeding the criteria (translation >2.0 mm and rotation >2.0°), and data were preprocessed using CONN toolbox version 19c (www.nitrc. org/projects/conn) implemented in MATLAB version 2020a [26 (link)]. The images were realigned and unwarped for motion estimation and were processed by slice-timing correction. Then, outliers were detected through ART-based scrubbing. Then, the images were coregistered using structural and functional images, segmented on structural images and normalized to Montreal Neurology Institute (MNI) space. Finally, the images were smoothed with a 6 mm full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) Gaussian kernel.

Approximately 1,400 volumes per subject were collected over 50 minutes while subjects performed the task.

Structural and functional images were acquired at Ghent University Hospital using a Siemens 3T Magnetom Trio MRI scanner.
Preprocessing and Generalized Linear Model. EPI images were 1) aligned to the first image in each time session, 2) corrected for slice acquisition timing; then the mean functional image was co-registered to the individual anatomical volume. The co-registered images were not normalized or smoothed.
A general linear model was then applied to the resulting voxel-level time-series in each block. The regressors of this analysis were generated through convolving the time-series impulse function for each of the 24 task states (6 decisions across 4 sequences) as well as motion parameters and global signal, with a canonical hemodynamic response function.

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
