Avanto mri scanner

Data across both time points were acquired on the same 1.5 tesla Siemens (Siemens Medical Systems, Erlangen, Germany) Avanto MRI scanner with a 32-channel head coil during two runs of approximately 9 minutes each. All data analyses were conducted using the software package SPM12 (www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/software/) implemented in Matlab 2018. Crosssectional analyses for baseline and follow-up data were carried out using a repeated measures Flexible Factorial Design, while longitudinal data were analysed to test for (group differences in) linear patterns of activation in response to basic and valenced ABM recall with age using the Sandwich Estimator Toolbox for Longitudinal and Repeated Measures Data v2.1.0 (SwE, toolbox for SPM, Guillaume et al., 2014) . Precise details of data acquisition parameters can be found in the supporting information.

Participants were scanned at the Birkbeck-UCL Centre for Neuroimaging using a 1.5-T Siemens (Siemens Medical Systems, Erlangen, Germany) Avanto MRI scanner, with a 32-channel head coil. Functional scans were acquired using a gradient-echo EPI sequence (repetition time = 3000 msec, echo time = 48 msec, field of view = 205 × 205, matrix = 64 × 64). In each volume, thirty-six 3.2-mmthick oblique axial slices were acquired. Anterior-toposterior phase encoding and a tilt were applied to the sequence to improve signal in OFC and amygdala. After this, a high-resolution T1 structural scan was acquired (magnetization prepared rapid gradient echo, 176 slices, 1 × 1 × 1 mm resolution). Foam padding was used to minimize head motions, and ear plugs were used to dampen the noise of the scanner. Stimuli were projected centrally onto a screen at the front of the magnet, which participants viewed using a mirror mounted on the head coil (visual angle of the whole screen = 21°× 13°).

All investigations were performed at the magnetic resonance premises of a specialized imaging centre (IZD Inc., Trnava, Slovakia) equiped with CMR 1.5 T Avanto MRI scanner by Siemens, Germany. Investigations were supervised by a trained radiologist and individually evaluated by a radiologist with CMR specialization.
After data acquisition, the protocol for LV function evaluation and myocardial infarction scar detection was applied as follows:
1. Morphological sequences to distinguish pathological infi ltrates in the myocardium (adipose deposits and other), 2. Multi-segmental sequences (for evaluation of regional and global LV functions), 3. Myocardium perfusion (rest/rest), 4. Aortic and pulmonary artery fl ow, 5. Ischemic and non-ischemic LV myocardial scar detection in 2D and 3D IR sequences. Volumetric data were obtained in 2-chamber view by standard steady-state /TRUFI/ sequences. The scans were 6 mm thick and covered the entire left ventricle from base to apex (Fig. 7). The used settings were as follows: PAT factor 2, FOV 340x340 mm, matrix 256x256, fl ip angle 80`, TR 36 mm, TE 1.2 ms. Gadobutrol, an extracellular macrocyclic non-ionic gadolinium contrast agent, was administered to all patients (Gadovist 1 mmol/ml/ manufactured by Bayer AG, Germany).
