MRIQC TSNR calculation on multi echo bold data

[yabrham]

Greetings experts,

Our lab have multi echo task bold images and we are trying to get the temporal signal to noise from the combined fMRI bold file. Could MRIQC carry out this computation if we pass it a multi echo fMRI data?

Thank you in advance,

Hi @yabrham ,

Using mriqc on multiecho data

Hi! My lab recently acquired some multiecho scans (some with 3 echoes, some with 4) and wants to compare these scans for quality while we prepare to launch a new scanning project (post-COVID-19). I ran the scans through mriqc, and to my surprise, mriqc treated each echo as an individual scan. I may have been mistaken in assuming that it would be able to combine the echoes into a sharper image - but is it possible? Is there some flag or something to indicate to mriqc that there is multiecho dat…
