Abstract

A number of studies showed that stimulus or task conditions can alter the shape of the hemodynamic response (HR). Contrary to variations across brains and brain regions, vascular factors alone cannot account for within-voxel HR waveform variations. Instead, different neuron types may contribute differently to shaping the HR, suggesting that beyond detecting neural activations, measurements of stimulus- or task-specific HRs could inform on the nature of underlying neural processes. To assess this hypothesis, we measured HR apparent delays to oriented visual stimuli with 1 mm and 1-s resolution Blood Oxygenation Level Dependent (BOLD) functional MRI (fMRI) in healthy humans. As expected, decoding V1 patterns of HR amplitudes allowed robust cross-validated predictions of stimulus conditions, ie two orthogonal gratings and an overlay of the two. More interestingly, this was also true using patterns of HR delays alone, and predictions using both delay and amplitude information outperformed those using amplitude alone. Finally, while all stimuli evoked similar V1-averaged HR amplitudes, the overlay stimulus’ HR waveform lagged ~180 ms behind that of grating stimuli. We interpret this increased HR delay as reflecting different neural computations, here more cross-orientation suppression with overlay stimuli, and conclude that neurally relevant information can be obtained from the HR waveform in addition to its commonly used amplitude.

Tracing map

Proposed by the machine: these links were found in the paper and verified at the source, without human review. The map will receive a Zenodo DOI once one of the paper's authors has validated it with their ORCID.

What the map holds:

  • 3 repositories of the authors' code, each at its verified commit, with its license and how the link was found in the paper;
  • 82 scripts, each with its path and the digest of its content;
  • 3 matches between paragraphs of the paper and lines of the code (method lexical-v1);
  • neither the text of the paper nor the code itself.

Its JSON (tracing-map.json) is deposited on Zenodo with its DOI once the map is validated.
