Standard fMRI acquires volumes as stacks of slices with 2D sequences. Acquisition time differences within a volume can be corrected post hoc using a sinc interpolation in image space (“slice timing correction”). In 3D sequences, timing correction is not possible in image space. Here, we verify an approach that rests on a sinc interpolation of timeseries in k-space before image reconstruction. Particularly, we investigate the artifacts which get removed by timing correction and quantify effects on the power spectra of timeseries in image space for 3D EPI.
