A Study to Compare Compact 3T, Conventional 3T, and 7T Scanners Using Task Based and Resting State fMRI

Overview

About this study

The dual purposes of this study are to determine whether the increased performance of the Compact 3T scanner produces higher quality data than a traditional 3T and a 7T scanner using three of the most commonly employed tasks in current clinical practice, and to determine which of these three scanner platforms provides the highest quality resting state fMRI data primarily assessing the default mode network.
