In the present work, we aimed to compare two sets of
HRFs for microstate-informed resting-state fMRI
analysis: the standard canonical HRF (CA), and the HRFs
extended by the two temporal and dispersion derivatives
(CA+). Fourteen healthy subjects underwent simultaneous
EEG/fMRI. We have found that the extended model CA+
shows lower residuals for visual and right auditory
areas across subjects. These findings provide further
support that the canonical HRF alone may be insufficient
to explain BOLD responses varying across brain regions
and subjects. However, further investigation is needed
to reduce residuals by using more flexible HRF models.
