Standard 8 channel head coil

Manufactured by GE Healthcare
Sourced in United States

The Standard 8-channel head coil is a medical imaging device used in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems. It is designed to receive and transmit radiofrequency (RF) signals from the human head, allowing for the acquisition of high-quality MRI images.

MRI data were acquired using a GE signa HDX 3.0T scanner with a standard 8-channel head coil at the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University, Shenyang, China. Three-dimensional, high-resolution, T1-weighted images was collected using a 3D fast spoiled gradient-echo (FSPGR) sequence with the following parameters: TR/TE = 7.1/3.2 ms, image matrix = 240 × 240, field of view (FOV) = 240 mm2 × 240 mm2, 176 contiguous slices of 1mm without gap, voxel size = 1.0 mm3. We acquired fMRI images using a spin echo planar imaging (EPI) sequence, parallel to the anterior-posterior commissure plane with the following scan parameters: repetition time (TR) = 2000 ms; echo time (TE) > = 40 ms; image matrix = 64×64; field of view (FOV) = 24 cm2 × 24 cm2; 35 contiguous slices of 3 mm without gap; scan time = 6 min 40 s (the 6 min 40 s scans included a total of 200 volumes). We acquired a high-resolution structural image using a three-dimensional fast spoiled gradient-echo T1-weighted sequence: TR = 7.1 ms, TE = 3.2 ms, FOV = 24 cm × 24 cm, matrix = 240 × 240, slice thickness = 1.0 mm without gap, and 176 slices.

Neuroimaging of Subliminal and Liminal Rectal Stimuli

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Imaging acquisition was performed using a GE Signa 3T scanner (GE, Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA) with a standard 8-channel head coil at the Medical College of Wisconsin. Each fMRI run consisted of four repeating cycles, with each cycle comprising a 15-second pressure and a 25-second rest (Fig. 1A). Two scans were performed during each of the subliminal and liminal stimulation conditions. Participants were not informed of the type or level of rectal distension stimulation, be it subliminal or liminal, before the start of each scan in order to minimize the anticipatory effects in the acquired data. Functional blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signals were acquired in the sagittal plane (repetition time, 2 s; echo time, 25 ms; slice thickness, 4 mm; in-plane resolution, 3.75 × 3.75 mm2; flip angle, 77°; field of view (FOV), 24 cm; matrix size, 64-by-64). The whole-brain high-resolution spoiled-gradient-recalled (SPGR) anatomical images were always obtained immediately after the completion of all fMRI runs (TR, 9.5 ms; TE, 3.9 ms; slices thickness, 1.2 mm; flip angle, 12°; FOV, 24 cm; matrix size, 256 × 224).

Participants received behavioral training in a mock MRI scanner, familiarizing them with the MRI environment in an effort to minimize motion-related artifacts. All participants were scanned using a GE Healthcare Discovery 3.0 T whole-body MR system (GE Medical Systems, Milwaukee, WI) with a standard 8-channel head coil at Stanford University Lucas Center for Imaging. Additional details about the pulse sequence and image quality check are presented in Supplementary Material.

About PubCompare

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.
