M.Tech. (CS), Semester III, Course B50 Functional Brain Signal Processing: EEG & fMRI Lesson 17 Kaushik Majumdar Indian Statistical Institute Bangalore Center [email protected] http://fmri.uib.no/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=71&Itemid=88 Simultaneous EEG and fMRI Recording Mantini et al., 2007 Imaging, Ballistocardigraphic (BCG) and Ocular Artifacts BCG artifacts create a 10 Hz rhythm in EEG. Anami et al., 2003 Artifacts Detail a = fat suppression pulse, b = slice selection RF, c, d, h are spoilers, e = slice selection gradient, f = dephasing and rephasing gradient, g = read out gradient. g has frequency 833 Hz here. Allen et al., 1998 Removal of BCG or Pulse Artifacts Template matching Niazy et al., 2005 Gradient Artifact and Its Removal Niazy et al., 2005 Four Stage Removal of Gradient Artifacts 1. 2. 3. Slice timing trigger alignment – synchronization of EEG and fMRI system clocks. Local slice artifact template subtraction. Residual artifact removal by optimal basis set (OBS). Widrow et al., 1975 Four Stage Removal of Gradient Artifacts (cont) 4. Adaptive noise cancelation (ANC). Simultaneous EEG-fMRI Recording Wires must not loop around to avoid generation of current (Lenz’s law) under high magnetic field. EEG electrodes and wires must not contain magnetic materials like steel, nickel. Simultaneous EEG-fMRI recording (cont) Movements in body, wires, electrodes and equipments must be minimized as far as possible. Head to be fixed by air cushion. Electric wires are also to be fixed to avoid any possible movements. Safety Issues Specific absorption rate (SAR) Heat is generated due to eddy current in electrode tips under high magnetic field. Heat generation (carbon fiber electrodes are better than metal electrodes). Goldman et al., 2000 Bipolar Montage with Twisted Wires In twisted wire pair electric field produced in one due to high magnetic field is canceled out by opposing field in the other. References D.
