Calculation of slice timing table for multiband fMRI acquisition (3T Philips scanner)

, ,
1

hi everyone,

I’m working on 3T Philips fMRI data and have to write a slice timing table for the slice timing correction step in my preprocessing pipeline. I have the following info on the data:

Slices=50;
MB_SENSE=‘yes’;
MB_SENSE_factor=2;
Slice_scan_order=‘FH’;
TR = “user defined”;
(ms) = 2000;

Slice_order =

Columns 1 through 23

 0     1     2     3     4     5     6     7     8     9    10    11    12    13    14    15    16    17    18    19    20    21    22
25    26    27    28    29    30    31    32    33    34    35    36    37    38    39    40    41    42    43    44    45    46    47

Columns 24 through 25

23    24
48    49

I am unsure as to how the slice timing can be calculated for this data, has anyone encountered a similar issue or can give me any tips?

Any info is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!
