However, delivering stimuli during fMRI can be challenging especially when administrating liquid stimuli in supine position. It remains unclear how and when odorants are released in the nose and how to improve odorant release. New method We used a proton transfer reaction mass spectrometer (PTR-MS) to monitor the in vivo release of odorants via the retronasal pathway during retronasal odor-taste stimulation in a supine position. We tested techniques to improve odorant release, including avoiding or delaying swallowing and velum open training (VOT). Results Odorant release was observed during retronasal stimulation, before swallowing, and in a supine position. VOT did not improve odorant release. Odorant release during stimulation had a latency more optimal for fitting with BOLD timing than after swallowing. Comparison with Existing Method(s) Previous in vivo measurements of odorant release under fMRI-like conditions showed that odorant release occurred only after swallowing. On the contrary, a second study found that aroma release could occur before swallowing, but participants were sitting. Conclusion Our method shows optimal odorant release during the stimulation phase, meeting the criteria for high-quality brain imaging of flavor processing without swallowing-related motion artifacts. These findings provide an important advancement in understanding the mechanisms underlying flavor processing in the brain.
