Re: [HCP-Users] contrast in human connectome 3T structural MRI
Thanks a lot for the input. Have you ever noticed whether this technique has a negative influence on the segmentation quality performed on those images?

Indeed this contrast mechanism is used to make MR angiograms of the head without using contrast. Peace, Matt.

Re: [HCP-Users] contrast in human connectome 3T structural MRI
Hi Jamila, These variable bright arteries in the T1w MPRAGE images are probably due to the time-of-flight (TOF) effects of those “fresh" arterial blood flowing into the brain after the inverse pulse. http://mriquestions.com/time-of-flight-effects.html Regards Gordon > On Mar 5, 2018, at 9:15 AM, Glasser, Matthew <glass...@wustl.edu> wrote: > > No gadolinium contrast was used in the HCP.

Re: [HCP-Users] contrast in human connectome 3T structural MRI
No gadolinium contrast was used in the HCP. Sometimes blood will appear bright on T1w scans for reasons other than gadolinium contrast. Peace, Matt.
