Workflow for releasing the Nigerian Brain Dataset. Diagram describing the workflow performed for getting the Nigerian Brain Dataset ready for publication. Raw DICOMs from the MRI scanners were first converted into BIDS standard format using ezBIDS, and the converted data was uploaded and organized automatically to brainlife.io. Data was then assessed for quality both qualitatively using brainlife.io Apps to generate images of the raw data, and quantitatively using MRIQC. Before release, the data was pseudo-anonymized via defacing by creating brain masks and removing all non-brain material. Defaced data was then published with a digital object identifier (DOI) which can be interacted with via brainlife.io.
