Neuroimaging Protocol for Functional MRI

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All MRI data was acquired on a Siemens Skyra 3.0T scanner equipped with a standard 20-channel radio-frequency head coil. Thirty-two slices were obtained in an oblique orientation of 30° to the anterior commissure-posterior commissure line to prevent signal drop-out from the prefrontal cortex (27 (link)).
High-resolution structural images were collected using a standard T1-weighted pulse sequence (TR = 2,100 ms, TE = 3.43 ms; 32 slices; 1 × 1 × 1 mm voxels). Using these images, functional activation could be localized. Functional data for four runs, consisting of 172 volumes each, was collected by using a standard T2*-weighted echo planar sequence (TR = 2,000 ms; TE = 30 ms; 3 × 3 × 3 mm voxels; flip angle = 90°; FoV = 256 mm; slice gap = 1 mm) sensitive to the blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) contrast.

Patients received baseline MR scan in 2 weeks before nCRT. Fat-suppressed T2WI were accessed from two institutions. At institution 1, all MR examinations were performed using a GE Discovery MR750w 3.0T scanner or a GE Discovery MR750 3.0T scanner. At institution 2, MR examinations were performed using four scanners (SIEMENS Skyra 3.0T scanner, SIEMENS Avanto 1.5T scanner, UIH uMR780 3.0T scanner, and UIH uMR588 1.5T scanner). Details of all scanner protocols are provided in eTable 1.

Functional MRI Preprocessing Pipeline

All participants in the discovery cohort underwent MRI image scanning using a 3.0T scanner (Discovery 750; GE Healthcare, USA). The MRI data of participants in the validation cohort were collected using a Siemens Skyra 3.0T scanner (Siemens Medical, Erlangen, Germany). Detailed scan sequences and parameters are described in the Data S1 (Method 2). Functional images were preprocessed using DPARSF (v5.2, http://rfmri.org/dparsf) and SPM12 toolbox (http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm). Slice timing correction and head motion correction were conducted after removing the first 15 time points. Participants with excessive head motion (2 mm translation or 2.0° rotation) were excluded. Structural images were co‐registered to the preprocessed functional images, and then segmented into GM, WM, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by using DARTEL. The resulting images were normalized to the Montreal Neurological Institute space, and each voxel was resampled to 3 × 3 × 3 mm3. Next, the mean signals from CSF, Friston‐24 head motion parameters were regressed out by multiple linear regression analysis. To avoid elimination of important neural signals, we did not remove WM and brain global signal. Finally, smoothing with 6 mm full‐width half‐maximum, detrending, and temporal filtering (bandpass, 0.01–0.08 Hz) were performed.

Procedures for image acquisition and pre-processing have been performed by UK Biobank, and are available on the UK Biobank website (http://www.ukbiobank.ac.uk/), and have been documented previously33 37 (link). In short, images were collected in Cheadle Manchester on a Siemens Skyra 3.0 T scanner (Siemens Medical Solutions, Germany) with a 32-channel head coil (https://www.healthcare.siemens.com/magnetic-resonance-imaging). T1-weighted scans were acquired using a 3D MPRAGE (resolution 1 mm3 isotropic voxels) sequence, and diffusion-weighted (DW) scans were acquired with a monopolar Steejskal-Tanner pulse sequence and multi-shell acquisition (b0 = 0 s/mm2, b = 1,000 s/mm2, b = 2,000 s/mm2). Images were preprocessed and analysed with the FMRIB Software Library (FSL) (http://fsl.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl). More detailed information is reported in the supplementary materials.

All scans were acquired using a Siemens Skyra 3.0 T scanner at the Lewis Center for Neuroimaging at the University of Oregon. Participants completed a mock scan prior to the MRI scan to familiarize them with the scanner. They received instructions for the task and practiced the task during the mock scan. Acquisition parameters were as follows: 2 × 180 volumes of 72 slices with 2 mm isometric voxels, TR = 2000 ms, TE = 25 ms, multiband acceleration factor = 3, in plane acceleration factor = 2, FOV = 208 mm, flip angle = 90°, duration = 6.5 min. per run. T1-weighted images were acquired as follows for co-registration: sagittal 3D MP-RAGE, 176 slices with 1 mm isometric voxels, FOV = 256 mm, TR = 2500 ms, TE = 3.41 ms, flip angle = 7°, TI = 1100 ms, matrix size = 256 × 256, acceleration factor = 2.

MRI Brain Image Processing Pipeline

Image acquisition and pre-processing of MRI scans have been performed by UK Biobank. Brain images were acquired on a Siemens Skyra 3.0 T scanner (Siemens Medical Solutions, Germany) with a 32-channel head coil. T1-weighted images with 1 mm3 isotropic resolution were previously analysed with FMRIB Software Library (FSL) (http://fsl.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl), with image-derived phenotypes (IDPs – imaging summary statistics such as brain volume and hippocampal volume) made available for general access. More detailed information on MRI acquisition and analysis have been reported elsewhere (Miller et al., 2016 (link); Alfaro-Almagro et al., 2018 (link)). UK Biobank also published a standardised MRI analysis pipeline (FMRIB's Biobank Pipeline version 1.0) that is freely available to the public, including the source code (https://git.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/falmagro/UK_biobank_pipeline_v_1) (Alfaro-Almagro et al., 2018 (link)).

Magnetic resonance imaging scanning was performed on a Siemens Skyra 3.0T scanner with an 8-channel head coil in the Shenzhen Sixth Hospital of Guangdong Medical University. All subjects were instructed to remain still and awake with their eyes closed during scanning. High-resolution T1-weighted structural images were obtained using a Siemens 3D MPRAGE sequence with the following parameters: 320 slices, slice thickness = 0.6 mm, TR/TE = 1900/2.12 ms, field of view = 256 × 256 mm2, data matrix = 448 × 448, spatial resolution = 0.57 × 0.57 × 0.60 mm3, inversion time = 900 ms, flipped angle = 9°.

Subjects were instructed not to drink water 1 hour before the examination. If they could not cooperate with the examination, a 6.5% chloral hydrate (0.8 mL/kg) solution was taken orally for sedation. Subjects who were able to cooperate with the examination in the awake state underwent prior breathing training. The MRI was performed with a Siemens Skyra 3.0T scanner (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany). Subjects were laid in the supine position, and their body surface was covered with an 18-channel body coil with the renal region as the center. The scanning sequence included coronal T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), axial T1-weighted imaging (T1WI), fat-suppressed T2WI, IVIM, and DKI. Simultaneous multi-slice (SMS) was used to complete the IVIM and DKI sequences in one scan and combined with a single shot-echo planar imaging (SS-EPI) sequence with multi-b values (0, 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200, 300, 500, 800, 1,000, 1,500, and 2,000 s/mm2) for coronal scanning with the level of the renal hilum as the center (5 (link)).

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.
