Here we assert that the individual dithers of a SLIDER-XD dataset can be utilized in a dual fashion to reconstruct not only a high spatial resolution dataset but also a high temporal resolution dataset (termed SLIDER-XDT) suitable for fMRI experiments requiring faster TRs. While analogous to spatial smoothing where spatial resolution is traded for statistical power in post-processing, SLIDER-XDT not only provides additional statistical power but also additional temporal resolution which can be used to support detection of additional resting state networks or to temporally un-alias signals of interest.
