Dear Mori,

No. See below.

artefacts completely before running ICA on data. So nothing will remain for
ICA to detect and separate.

His SVD-based method works *better* than the simple template subtraction in
my opinion, but no method can do this job perfectly due to data
non-stationarity. After all, data quality depends on how cooperative
subjects are.

Depending on your TR and the number of slices, it can make a peak at the
theta, alpha, and beta ranges. ECG is harder to remove, and it tends to
overlap theta.

So it's pretty challenging.
If you haven't seen Paul Sajda's nice invention of EEG cap for fMRI-EEG
recording, you should check it. In his talk he said this hardware-level
solution is very important for good data quality.
