fMRI Dataset for Studying Propofol Anesthesia Mechanisms with Awake Baseline in Mice

# fMRI Dataset for Studying Propofol Anesthesia Mechanisms with Awake Baseline in Mice

## Dataset Overview

This dataset contains resting-state functional MRI (fMRI) data from propofol-induced sleep in mice, organized according to the Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS) standard version 1.9.0.

**Data Modality:**
- **fMRI only**: Resting-state functional MRI data from 10 mice (sub-02 to sub-11)
