Dear Colleagues As you know, Alliance Medical have now left YNiC. This means that they obviously are not providing MRI Operators. The only authorised MRI operators are Andre Gouws Mark Hymers Ross Devlin (temporary appointment to cover clinical projects, but is available for research scanning from the 5th of January) others are in training. I will inform you when more operators become available Please do not try and operate the magnet console if you are not on the list. This is for your safety and those of your participants. You will not be covered by insurance if an incident were to occur. The full list of operators can always be found at https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/information/mri-operators Gary -- Gary Green York Neuroimaging Centre The Biocentre York Science Park Innovation Way Heslington York YO10 5DG http://www.ynic.york.ac.uk https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/about-us/people/ggrg tel. +44 (0) 1904 435349 PA (Amy Gibson) +44 (0) 1904 435329 or amy.gibson(a)ynic.york.ac.uk fax +44 (0) 1904 435356 mobile +44 (0) 788 191 3004

Downtime at YNiC
by Mark Hymers 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hi, As you are probably aware, YNiC open plan will be closed tomorrow for staff training. We're also going to take the opportunity to perform a needed hardware fix on one of the main servers, so it won't be possible for people to leave analyses running on the machines in open plan or the cluster. This outage will be from around 9am for an hour or so. This will also affect the remote desktop service, which will be rebooted as part of the work - anybody who has suspended sessions should make sure that they save their work before tomorrow morning. I've explicitly Bcc'd those who appear to have sessions running to ensure that they know about this - apologies to anyone who gets the mail twice. Thanks, Mark -- Mark Hymers York Neuroimaging Centre

IMPORTANT CHANGES - fMRI SCANNING.
by Andre Gouws 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

Hi all, IF YOU USE PRESENTATION IN fMRI PLEASE READ THIS! We have recently been experiencing issues with the synchronisation of stimulus code in Presentation with pulses from the scanner. This problem has been intermittent and inconsistent. As many scans rely on precise timings by synch-ing with specific pulses from the scanner, we have had to come up with an alternate solution. Without boring you with the fine detail, we are using a different port on the scanner to provide us with the pulse information. After extensive testing this afternoon, this port seems to give consistent output while the other does not. Anyone using pulses from the scanner to synchronise their presentation stimuli should note the following: Change "pulses_per_scan" in your scenario header (.sce files) to the actual number of slices you are acquiring. In the past this has been set to half the number (e.g. if you were acquiring 38 slices per TR you had pulses_per_scan = 19). Just to make that clear, YOU SHOULD DOUBLE THE NUMBER YOU CURRENTLY HAVE IN pulses_per_scan. N.B. YOU MUST CHANGE THESE NUMBERS WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT OR YOUR TIMINGS WILL BE INCORRECT. Also note that when you run your pulses calibration scan you will now get twice the number of pulses you got before. This will not affect your data in any way, it simply means that you are getting a pulse for every slice from the scanner, rather than every second slice. This will work for all TRs, and the back room settings should now be the same for all researchers. If you have any queries, please contact me.
