Overview

NA-MIC Driving Biological Projects investigators have made several datasets available to NA-MIC developers. This page provides information on how to obtain access to these datasets.

User Accounts to Access NAMIC Data

FMRI and DTI datasets are currently available to NAMIC participants via the BIRN Controlled Infrastructure. In order to access this data, please use the following steps to create a BIRN account with NAMIC permissions:

  • ** Before you download data using the account you have created, please confirm with your PI that you have received adequate human subject training. If your site does not provide this training, please do this Human Subject Online Training as an affiliate of Brigham and Women's Hospital and send a copy of your certificate to your PI for their records.

Brockton VA/Harvard Structural and DTI Images

Data Access

To download this data, click on the following links:

Data Description

Data Contact

If you have any questions about the data, please contact Sylvain Bouix at Harvard.

Dartmouth Structural, Functional, T2 and DTI Images

Data Access

To download this data, click on the following links:

Data Description

  • 6 Healthy Controls Data
    • All data were acquired on a 1.5T GE MRI Scanner using the Horizon LX software platform.
    • SPGR: Scan Parameters and Data Structure
    • T2: Scan Parameters and Data Structure
    • fMRI (ER-RECOG task):Scan Parameters and Data Structure
      • NOTE: onsets for tasks included with data are WRONG. New onsets have been uploaded to here
    • DTI:Scan Parameters and Data Structure
    • Hippocampus Traces: Hippocampal traces were made on an SPGR resampled to 1.015625 mm3 isotropic voxels and realigned along the long axis of the hippocampus. This reoriented SPGR volume is included with the traces. Traces were drawn using the Brains program.
    • Hippocampal ROIs: Binary Hippocampal ROIs have been uploaded in the same directory as the traces. These ROIs are in Analyze format. There are four ROIs for each subject (left hippo, left hippo smoothed 3mm FHMW, right hippo, right hippo smoothed 3mm FHMW). The smoothed ROIs have 'sROI' in the filename.
  • MRI Data for 15 SZ
    • Data consists of DICOM slices for SPGR and trace files for various Frontal Lobe Subdivisions
      • SPGR: Scan Parameters and Data Structure
      • Frontal Traces: Traces were made on SPGR volume using the Brains program. Go here for a listing of the structures available and the filenames associated with them.

Data Contact

  • For any extra information needed on this data please contact John D. West. Contact info can be found on the members list in the NA-MIC section of BIRN.

Search for NAMIC Data

Users earch for data available on the BIRN data grid through metadata applied to the data itself. Each data object and collection can be assigned any number of metadata tags. Currently the metadata tags consist of items such as: Modality (DTI, T1, T2, etc.), Institution, etc.

To see an example of metadata on a data file, take a look at the following UCI file: First

Replication of Data

Currently, the NAMIC data sets are stored in BIRN at:

/home/Projects/NAMIC__0003/Files (physicall located at NCMIR)
/home/Projects/Study5000__0005/Files (physically located at UCI)

For redundancy in case a Birn Rack were to go offline we have replicated the data to the BWH rack in preparation for the Programmer's Week.

This can be seen when using 'Sls -a'

 [jgerk@ncmir-gpop scratch]$ Sls -a UCI07110773.tgz
 jgerk       0 z-ucsd-ncmir-nas1       451315092 2005-02-18-14.00 % /home/Projects/Study5000__0005/Files/Archive/UCI07110773.tgz
 jgerk       1 z-harvard-bwh-nas1      451315092 2005-06-24-17.02 % /home/Projects/Study5000__0005/Files/Archive/UCI07110773.tgz

During regular use it is not important that the file resides in two places, but it should be understood that removing the file will result in removing both copies.

As more data is added to NAMIC we can periodically run the following command to update the BWH resource (provided you have the correct permissions).

 Sbkupsrb -r -S z-harvard-bwh-nas1 Files

Notes

Instructions on creating Data Repository Pages are here.


Namic Domain Creation

Please note that users who previously belonged to the external domain have been added to the namic domain. If you use the SRB S-commands, this mandates a change to your .MdasEnv file if you wish for your default directory to be /home/<your_user_name>.namic or if your default directory was previously /home/<your_user_name>.external. Please update your .MdasEnv file to point to your new default directory.
