Neuroimaging Data Processing References Glossary Index BOLD blood-oxygen-level-dependent EPI (gradient-echo) echoplanar imaging fMRI functional magnetic resonance imaging MRI magnetic resonance imaging rotation turning the entire image around an axis in space: x-y, x-z, y-z (in the absence of translation) TE echo time TR repetition time translation moving the entire image volume along an axis in space: x-,y-, and z-axes (in the absence of rotation) volume one 3-dimensional image, i.e., one timepoint in a 4-dimensional fMRI image voxel one 3-dimensional unit (length × width × height) in a 3-dimensional image (analogous to a pixel in a 2-dimensional image) See also Glossary.
