Improved Reliability of Resting-State Functional MRI Connectivity Using Multi-Echo Acquisition: Implications for Personalized Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Targeting

Key Points

• The primary aim is to improve the reliability of resting-state functional MRI connectivity for better transcranial magnetic stimulation targeting.
• Comparison of multi-echo fMRI with single-echo fMRI
• Assessment of functional connectivity reliability
• Focus on TMS-specific measures
• Multi-echo fMRI shows improved reliability for general functional connectivity
• Potential benefits for targeted TMS applications
