External Email - Use Caution Dear experts,
I am reviewing a study that proposes a longitudinal study in patients across several years on the effect of medical treatment in terms of fcMRI and DTI-connectivity measures. However, in several but not all patients, the scanner was upgraded from Trio to Prisma and the head coil was changed from a 12 to a 20-channel. Every patient had the upgrade at another time point. I would like to hear your opinion on this. In my experience, the scanner upgrade and especially the head coil upgrade heavily affected the images. So I have fundamental doubts about the feasibility. What would be the conditions under which it could be acceptable? Thank you in advance! Best, Markus
