Hi!
Can anyone tell me what possible issues there are with only using one mprage in creating a recon?
[Our first mprage is crashing the reconstruction, and we have found that there was an error of some sort during that mprage, thus the need to do the recon with only the second mprage.]
Thanks in advance, Jake
It really shouldn't be a problem to only use one. Using two can give you better SNR but many people have used one successfully - it mostly depends on the quality of your data. For poor quality data, having two might be more necessary. Allison

Hi Jake,
a single mp-rage is usually not a problem. The only thing you have to be aware of is making sure that you don't have imbalanced groups (e.g. all patients with a single mp-rage and all controls with 2).
cheers, Bruce
