Abstract
MRI data were collected at the Center for Cognitive and Neurobiological Imaging at Stanford University. A dual spin echo diffusion-weighted sequence was used. In each scan MR images were acquired for 150 different directions of diffusion weighting, determined by an electro-static repulsion algorithm (Jones, Horsfield, & Simmons, 1999). A b value of 2000 s/mm2 was used. 10 non-diffusion weighted images (b=0) were acquired at the beginning of the scan. MR images were motion corrected to the average b0 image in each scan, using a rigid body alignment algorithm implemented in SPM (Ashburner and Friston, 2003). Because of the long duration between the RF excitation and image acquisition in the dual-spin echo sequence used, eddy current correction was not applied. Pre-processing was implemented in Matlab as part of the mrVista software distribution (Dougherty, Ben-Shachar, Bammer, Brewer, & Wandell, 2005), which can be downloaded at http://github.com/vistalab/vistasoft).
