Abstract: Methods, computer-readable storage devices, and systems are described for reducing movement of a patient undergoing a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. One method includes receiving a data frame from the MRI system performing the MRI scan of the patient, comparing the data frame to a reference image to assess motion of a body part of the patient during the MRI scan, generating stimulus to be communicated to the patient during the MRI scan based on a task of the MRI scan and the motion of the body part of the patient during the MRI scan, adjusting the stimulus during the MRI scan to adjust the task and as the motion of the body part of the patient changes, and communicating the stimulus to the patient during the MRI scan, wherein the sensory feedback includes at least one of a game, a movie, a cartoon, a shape, or an auditory signal.

Abstract: Methods, computer-readable storage devices, and systems are described for reducing movement of a patient undergoing a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan by aligning MRI data, the method implemented on a Framewise Integrated Real-time MRI Monitoring (“FIRMM”) computing device including at least one processor in communication with at least one memory device. Aspects of the method comprise receiving a data frame from the MRI system, aligning the received data frame to a preceding data frame, calculating motion of a body part between the received data frame and the preceding data frame, calculating total frame displacement, and excluding data frames with a cutoff above a pre-identified threshold of the total frame displacement.
