This abstract presents a circular echo planar imaging sequence for simultaneous multi-slice imaging. A generalized SENSE reconstruction framework with ghost correction was utilized. Different sampling strategies including wave modulation, blipped-CAIPI, and hexagonal were examined. Phantom as well as human fMRI scanning at 3T are shown.
