Re: [HCP-Users] Why multiband data?

[Harms, Michael]

Hi Kelly, I put some empirical task data comparing MB to no-MB acquisitions in the same subjects in a poster at the 2013 OHBM. You are welcome to contact me off the list if you would like further details.

For the resting state data this was addressed previously: http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0015710 Additional discussions of the benefits of multi-band imaging appear in: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1053811913005065 http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1053811913005338 http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1053811913005053 For task fMRI, the issue is discussed some here, though there was a strong desire to use the same imaging protocol for the task fMRI and resting state fMRI: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1053811913005272 Is there a specific reason you are concerned about the multi-band imaging? Of course, collecting both conventional and multi-band would have either left us with either half as much data, or it would have cost twice and much with twice as much subject burden. Peace, Matt.

Dear HCP-users, I have a question about the resting state and task-evoked fMRI data collected through the HCP. Why did you choose to only collect multiband EPI data? As far as I know, no validation studies have been performed to verify that these new multiband sequences yield similar results compared to conventional EPI sequences. Would it not be a better choice to use a conventional EPI sequence? The best approach would of course be to collect both conventional and multiband EPI data for each subject, to be able to compare the sequences.
