  • Utilized simulated fMRI datasets with controlled translational and rotational motion.
  • Employed the coefficient of variation (COV) of the center of intensity as the motion quantification metric.

    • Main Results:

    • The implemented module enabled real-time quantification of motion during fMRI experiments.
    • Calculated COV values before and after image registration to assess correction effectiveness.
    • Determined the specific limits of motion that can be effectively corrected.

    Conclusions:

    • Real-time motion detection is feasible and valuable for presurgical planning fMRI.
    • This technology allows for immediate decisions on data reacquisition, optimizing scan time and quality.
    • Understanding motion correctability limits enhances the reliability of fMRI for surgical guidance.
