Dear fMRI expert.
Our fMRI group works for auditory fMRI now.
We got the good activation for the 4 kinds of sound band.
To get more good activation, we stopped the pump for refilling helium gas during EPI acquisition (about 40 minutes).
But, I could not get the activations in primary auditory cortex.
Stopping the pump could cause the change of BOLD signal?
