Subject head motion negatively affects task based fMRI and connectivity based studies. We have developed a biophysical model named FIACH to address these issues. FIACH is a biophysical model of motion correction that employs a two-step procedure for motion correction. We have demonstrated it performs better than four other methods of retrospective motion correction. This was demonstrated in a paediatric population during overt speech where subject motion is common. FIACH is also capable of correcting data near inferior temporal areas. These areas have proven problematic for fMRI and FIACH provides the opportunity to improve knowledge of these areas function.
