Multiple sampling dataset for Diffusion Tensor Imaging studies- Raw dataset

Acquisition protocol
This is a DTI dataset with large number of samples for 20 healthy individuals. All the subjects were acquired at the Hospital das Clínicas at Ribeirão Preto (M: 70, F: 61, average age: 34.12 (18 – 45 years old, right-handed). The acquisition protocol was set on a 3.0T MRI scanner (Phillips, Achieva) with the following acquisitions parameters:Single-shot echo-planar imaging sequence, parallel imaging factor of 2.0, matrix of 128 × 128, field of view of 240 × 240 mm (nominal resolution: 2.0 mm isotropic), transverse sections were acquired parallel to the anterior commissure-posterior line (AC-PC), N=1 samples, and 72 sections covered the entire hemisphere and brainstem without gaps. Diffusion weighting images were encoded along 32 whole sphere independent orientations and the b-value was 1,000 s/mm2.The scanning time per dataset was approximately 4 minutes, which follows a reasonable data acquisition protocol in the clinical routine. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Medicine School of Ribeirão Preto at the University of São Paulo.
