To aid the implementation of dcFMRI in clinical and
research scan protocols, it is necessary to produce
reliable measures of absolute CMRO
2
in
a short scan time. However, reducing scan time must be
done carefully and it is important to establish that the
parameter measurements are not compromised. Here we
investigate reducing scan times of an interleaved and
simultaneous hypercapnic-hyperoxic dcFMRI acquisition
using two analytical approaches. A varying window
duration analysis is used to investigate if periods of
respiratory challenges can be shortened and a
data-point resampling analysis is used to investigate
if fewer respiratory challenges can be performed.
