Physiological noise correction (PNC) is now commonly used to minimize the variance in fMRI data. The correction is most often performed in image space, however this methodology was originally developed as a k-space based correction. GRAPPA is widely used to accelerate data acquisition. The ACS lines are usually acquired separately, however this temporal mismatch could allow physiological noise to degrade the GRAPPA reconstruction. To explore the influence of physiological noise on GRAPPA reconstruction, we have applied PNC at various points in the processing pipeline of both normal GRAPPA reconstructed EPI data and data with temporally updated GRAPPA weights (tGRAPPA).
