Overview
Tab Title Description
Study type
ObservationalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.

About this study
This study will determine if a multiband EPI fMRI pulse sequence provides higher quality data than a traditional EPI fMRI pulse sequence for language fMRI.
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adults ages 18 and older
- language fMRI has been ordered by the neurosurgical or neurology clinical services.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients with safety contraindications to MRI scanning at 3T
- Patients unable to adequately perform the language fMRI task due to physical, neurological, or cognitive disability
- Patients that demonstrate 3 mm or greater translational head motion during scanning of the fMRI rhyming task data sets
- Pregnant women
