Background Physiological noise reduction plays a critical role in spinal cord (SC) resting‐
state fMRI (rsfMRI). Purpose To reduce physiological noise and increase the robustness of …

Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, the authors aimed to determine the roles of
the human spinal cord in mediating sexual responses in women. Functional magnetic …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of the human spinal cord (SC) is a unique
non-invasive method for characterizing neurovascular responses to stimuli. Group-analysis …

BACKGROUND: Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) is based on the Blood
Oxygenation Level Dependent contrast and has been exploited for the indirect study of the …

The purpose of this study was to determine whether spinal cord functional magnetic
resonance imaging could be used to map neural activity throughout the lower thoracic …

Although event-related fMRI is able to reliably detect brief changes in brain activity and is
now widely used throughout systems and cognitive neuroscience, there have been no …

We have measured the forces that act on the electrode-bearing surface of an intradural
neuromodulator designed to be in direct contact with the pial surface of the spinal cord, as …

Cardiac-related spinal cord motion affects diffusion-weighted (DWI) signal. The goal of this
study was to further quantify the specific detrimental effect of cord translational motion on the …

Background and purpose There are distinct challenges in the preprocessing of spinal cord
fMRI data, particularly concerning the mitigation of voluntary or involuntary movement …

Subject motion is challenging for MRS, because it can falsify results. For spinal cord MRS in
particular, subject movement is critical, since even a small movement> 1 mm) can lead to a …
