Prospective Motion Correction (PMC) using an optical tracking system has been shown to improve data quality. We conducted a study on 18 subjects using robust visual stimuli to quantify the effectiveness of PMC on task-based fMRI. Our results show that PMC improves voxel-to-voxel registration across time and leads to better contrast-to-noise ratio. This is particularly evident in analyses which are more sensitive to inaccurate voxel registration and motion-induced noise.
