Calibration WG Overall goals: 1. Develop and maintain scanner QA methods • Procedures on web site • Paper in press: Friedman & Glover, JMRI • Develop and implement means for reducing intersite variations in fMRI sensitivity
Bonus Aim Calibration WG Proposed intersite calibration aims: 1. Further develop BH methods (GHG) Develop ASL methods (Tom Liu) 3. Examine smoothing equalization (Friedman et al., in review) 4. Develop new method based on SFNR (Lee Friedman)
Update on BH • Theory and measurements developed Paper on BH kids/adults (Thomason, NI 2005) Paper on BH calib (Thomason, HBM in press) • Next steps

BH Calibration Method • Use BH task (non-neuronal, no change in CMRO2) to normalize cognitive task • Reduces signal change related to vasoreactivity • Should reduce inter-subject variance
WM/BH Study • Adult subjects performed - SWM task (Sternberg) - BH task • Compared intersubject variability in WM effect with/without BH calibration M. Thomason et al., HBM 2006

Sl 10, aud Vascular Responsivity: BH • Variations in inspiration may modulate blood oxygenation
Behavioral Effect Mitigation Approaches • Model breathing variations using GLM Signal = a * Resp + b * HR
Vascular Responsivity: BH GHG111603
Behavioral Effect Mitigation Approaches • Model breathing variations using GLM Signal = a * Resp + b * HR • Provide respiration feedback to maintain inspiration level constant
BH Status • Program available to make calibrated timeseries- input = timeseries, BH scan, params • Developing feedback device piezo electric resp monitor from ADI LED meter, analog electronics. Est. cost $500
