MRI Scanning of Infants During Natural Sleep

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
During the first visit, the MRI scanning protocol will be conducted during natural sleep, without sedation, according to established protocols.31 (link) One week before the day of visit, caregivers will receive a compact disc or digital file with a recording of the operating sound of the MRI scanner. The caregivers will be asked to play these sounds while the infants sleep to familiarize them with these noises. During the scanning day, the caregiver will feed the infant and then put the infant to sleep in a separate staging room from the MRI scanner, or rock the baby to sleep in the scanner suite. A memory foam mattress for infants will be used to support them firmly and comfortably on the scanner table. Silicone infant earplugs and customized MRI-compatible headphones will be used for ear protection and to diminish noise during scanning and to promote continued sleep. One investigator will stay with the infant throughout the scanning session to monitor the infants responses, with the caregiver observing the scanning through the control room window. Infant participants will be scanned on a Siemens Prisma 3T system (Waukesha, Wisconsin). The scan protocol will include structural MRI and diffusion-weighted MRI protocols. CST integrity will be quantified using established methods.32 (link) The complete MRI data set will be obtained in less than 38 minutes.

All scanning was performed using a Siemens PRISMA 3T system using a 32-channel receive-only radiofrequency head coil. All participants underwent the following sequences: (i) 3D T2 SPACE sequence52 where the flip angles of the train of refocusing pulses are optimized to increase the useable echo train duration (TR/TE: 3200/408 ms; voxel size: 1 × 1 × 1 mm3); (ii) 3D SPACE-FLAIR sequence (TR/TE: 5000/388 ms; TI: 1800 ms; voxel size: 1 × 1 × 1 mm3); (iii) 3D T1 MPRAGE (TR/TE: 2300/3 ms; flip angle: 9°; voxel size: 1 × 1 × 1 mm3); and (iv) high angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI; 14 b = 0 images; 30 directions at b = 1200 s/mm2; 60 directions at b = 2400 s/mm2; TR/TE: 9400/70 ms; voxel size: 2 × 2 × 2 mm3).

Quantifying White Matter Hyperintensities in Cognitive Impairment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Participants at UCSF and UKy were scanned with the same type of Siemens Prisma 3Tsystem and images were analyzed by the methods described.22 (link),23 (link) All images at both UCSF and UKy were rated for burden of WMH by a board-certified neurologist in addition to being reviewed by a neuroradiologist to rule out other significant abnormalities. WMH volumes were obtained from T2-weighted FLAIR images using visual grading and an automated method for quantification and localization. Total WMH volume was estimated by summing all the voxels classified as WMH and normalized for total intracranial volume. Those with a modified Fazekas score ≥ 2 or with a ratio of WMH volume to total intracranial volume >0.22 were considered to have SCeVD, which included 22 for the CN set and 16 for the pAD/MCI set (Table 1). Those with a modified Fazekas score < 2 or with a ratio of WMH volume to total intracranial volume ≤ 0.22 were considered to be free of significant SCeVD, which included 20 for the CN set and 22 for the pAD/MCI set.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MRI data were acquired using a Siemens (Siemens Healthineers, Erlangen, Germany) Prisma 3T system using the Q-body coil for signal transmission with reception on a 32-channel head coil. A T1-weighted Magnetization PRepAred Gradient Echo (MPRAGE) with 1 mm3 isotropic voxels, 192 × 192 × 192 matrix, TI/TE/TR = 877/2.08/2,000 ms was collected for volume-based morphometry (VBM) and was repeated if significant motion was detected on acquisition (based on recommendation of experienced radiographer).
MPRAGE data were processed using the Freesurfer (v7.1.1, MGH, Harvard) image analysis suite consisting of removal of non-brain tissue (Ségonne et al., 2004 (link)), Talairach transformation, intensity normalization (Sled et al., 1998 (link)), and segmentation (Fischl et al., 2002 (link), 2004a (link),b (link)). Data were further processed to extract hippocampal and amygdala subfields using the automated pipeline in Freesurfer (Iglesias et al., 2015 (link)).

Brain scans were acquired at the Ahmanson & Lovelace Brain Mapping Center at UCLA. Thirty-four participants were scanned on a 3T Siemens Trio system with a 32-channel head coil with following parameters: MB factor 3, voxel dimension 1.8 mm3 isotropic, FoV=190 mm, TR=3245ms, TE=84ms, 144 gradient directions and 12 b0’s, 72 slices, flip angle=90°, b-factor= 1000 s/mm2. Total scanning time was 8.39 minutes. Another 36 participants underwent scanning after a hardware upgrade to a Siemens Prisma 3T system at the same Center. Diffusion imaging parameters included: MB factor 4, voxel dimension 1.5 mm3 isotropic, FoV=210 mm, TR=3230ms, TE=89.20ms, 98 gradient directions and 7 b0’s, 92 slices, flip angle=78°, b-factor=1500 s/mm2.

T1‐weighted (structural), FLAIR, DWI, and SWI data were acquired on a Siemens Prisma 3T system with a 64‐channel head/neck coil using the pulse sequence parameters in Table S2. Data were visually inspected after each acquisition to allow individual sequences to be repeated if movement artefacts were identified. Associations with neuropsychological test scores were tested in stable patients for each sequence using methods described in a previous publication.17 Age and sex were used as covariates in all analyses. Where associations were identified, the analyses were repeated, including UWDRS‐N as a covariate. Additional details on the following methods described are provided in Appendix S1.

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.
