Resting state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rsfMRI)

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive technique for examining brain activity. Resting state fMRI aims to assess spontaneous brain activity using MRI while the participant is at rest, not performing any specific task. It captures ongoing functional connectivity patterns within the brain.

In YOUth Baby and Child, the fetal resting state fMRI experiment was a FE EPI with the following parameters: 180 3.5mm slices; echo time (TE) 30 ms; repetition time (TR) 2000 ms; flip angle 82 degrees; in-plane voxel size 3.5 x 3.5mm^2. The neonatal resting state fMRI experiment was measured while the baby was asleep/resting, with the following parameters: 256 3.25mm slices; echo time (TE) 45 ms; repetition time (TR) 1508 ms; flip angle 50 degrees; in-plane voxel size 3.25x4mm^2. In the resting state fMRI experiment in adolescents (Child and Adolescent cohort), adolescents were presented with a white cross on a grey screen. The scan sequence used a SENSE coil; parallel imaging, sensefactor 1.8; 3D T2* weighted scan; Timeseries 480 scans, single scan duration 1 sec; Scanorientation sagittal; 64x64 acquisition matrix; 51 slices; multiband factor 3; FOV = 220 mm; 2.5 mm isotropic voxels; TR/TE1000/25. All files are in classic DICOM format.
