Sourced in Germany

The 3-T MAGNETOM Verio scanner is a high-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system manufactured by Siemens. It operates at a magnetic field strength of 3 Tesla, which provides enhanced image quality and resolution compared to lower field strengths. The 3-T MAGNETOM Verio is designed for a wide range of clinical applications, including neuroimaging, musculoskeletal imaging, and body imaging.

Resting-state fMRI of Healthy Brains

A 3 T MAGNETOM Verio scanner was used (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany). Participants were scanned using T2* weighted multiband echo-planar imaging (EPI) sequence in resting-state. They were requested to have their eyes open and fixated on a white cross displayed on a dark background on the display, using an Avotec projection system. They were asked to not think of anything specific. Scanning parameters were as follows: TR = 600 ms, TE = 30 ms, FA = 55°, multiband factor = 2, voxel size = 3 × 3 × 4 mm3 and 1000 volumes. Brain coverage was restricted to the cerebral cortex, midbrain, pons and subcortical structures (cerebellum excluded). Two separate scans were done for every subject (same day), hence providing 174 sessions of rs-fMRI data for 87 subjects. This mathematically boosted the statistical power of our analysis.

3T MRI for Whole-Brain Structural and Functional Imaging

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Images were acquired using a Siemens 3-T MAGNETOM Verio scanner with a 32-channel head coil at the Texas A&M Institute for Preclinical Studies (TIPS), College Station, TX. High-resolution whole-brain anatomical images were acquired using a T1-weighted magnetization prepared rapid gradient echo (MPRAGE) pulse sequence [150 coronal slices, voxel size = 1 mm isotropic, repetition time (TR) = 7.9 ms, echo time (TE) = 3.65 ms, flip angle = 8°]. Whole-brain functional images were acquired using a multiband T2*-weighted echo planar imaging (EPI) pulse sequence [56 axial slices, multiband factor = 8, TR = 600 ms, TE = 29 ms, flip angle = 52°, image matrix = 96 × 96, field of view = 240 mm, slice thickness = 2.5 mm with no gap]. Each EPI pulse sequence began with dummy pulses to allow the MR signal to reach steady state and concluded with an additional 6 s blank epoch to allow for measurement of the unfolding of the blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) response.

T1-weighted images were acquired with a 3-T Magnetom Verio Scanner (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany) using three-dimensional magnetization-prepared rapid gradient-echo imaging (3D MP-RAGE) protocol with the following parameters: inversion time 900 ms; repetition time 2,300 ms; echo time 2.98 ms; flip angle 9°; field of view 256 × 240 × 176 mm; voxel size 1 × 1 × 1 mm. To analyze gray matter volume and cortical thickness, T1-weighted images were preprocessed using FreeSurfer version 5.3.0 (https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/)19 (link).
MR images were preprocessed using the standard pipeline recon-all. After normalization and skull-stripping of the T1-weighted images, cortical tissue boundaries were reconstructed and transformed to a subject-specific surface mesh. The distance between pial and gray/white matter surfaces at each vertex location of the mesh was calculated in order to obtain cortical thickness measurements20 (link). Based on Desikan-Killiany’s cortical parcellation, regional cortical thickness and gray matter volume was extracted separately for the several brain regions in each hemisphere and averaged for the analysis. All images were visually checked for misplaced tissue boundaries and manually corrected if necessary.

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.
