Example data for one individual (participant 342). For each individual we provide a scan with T1-weighting (A), a T2-weighted fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) (B), as well as two images from an echo-planar imaging diffusion sequence. With regards to the diffusion sequences shown, this study chose to use very short DWI sequences referred to Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) (C) and TRACE (D) scans, as opposed to longer (10–20 minute) DWI sequences used to calculate tractography. These shorter DWI scans allowed for detection of abnormal diffusion using a very short acquisition time, which is apt for clinical settings.
