The BOLD effect is usually interpreted as a change in transverse relaxation rate (deltaR2). In this study, deltaR2 during visual stimulation (VS) and hypercapnia (HC) DW fMRI experiments was estimated using a multiple spin-echo EPI acquisitions after motion-probing gradients. deltaR2 showed dependence on b-value during VS, but not during HC. The results suggest that deltaR2 at high b-value may demonstrate a higher sensitivity to neuronal activation than at lower b-values., 18th Scientific Meeting & Exhibition}, title = {Time-course of deltaR2 during visual stimulation and hypercapnia diffusion-weighted fMRI experiments}, year = {2010} }
