Hi Freesurfers,
We would like to optimize the 'Freesurferability' of images for a new project involving fidgety young children. Ideally, the structural scan time will be under 5 minutes. We have a GE Signa 3T MR750, with an 8-channel head coil. Preliminary experiments have found two short structural scan options, but both require some intervention after autorecon2 in the Freesurfer pipeline.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a sequence that
a) runs in under 5 minutes
b) freesurfs with minimal intervention
and c) that they would be kind enough to share.
Thank you in advance,
Mira
