Purpose: Fetal functional MRI studies using conventional 2-dimensional single-shot echo-planar imaging sequences may require discarding a large data fraction as a result of fetal and maternal motion. Increasing the temporal resolution using echo volumar imaging (EVI) could provide an effective alternative strategy. Echo volumar imaging was combined with inner volume (IV) imaging (IVEVI) to locally excite the fetal brain and acquire full 3-dimensional images, fast enough to freeze most fetal head motion. Methods: IVEVI was implemented by modifying a standard multi-echo echo-planar imaging sequence. A spin echo with orthogonal excitation and refocusing ensured localized excitation. To introduce T
