Image properties - As acquired

  • MRI system:
    • Manufacturer, field strength (in Tesla), model name
  • MRI acquisition:
    • Number of experimental sessions and volumes acquired per session
    • Pulse sequence type (gradient/spin echo, EPI/spiral)
    • If used, parallel imaging parameters, if any (e.g. method (SENSE/GRAPPA) and acceleration factor)
    • Field of view, matrix size, slice thickness, interslice skip
    • Acquisition orientation (axial, sagittal, coronal, oblique; if axials co-planar w/ AC-PC, the volume coverage in terms of Z in mm)
    • Whole brain? if not, state area of acquisition
    • order of acquisition of slices (sequential or interleaved)
    • TE/TR/flip angle
