Loading a Dataset

In order for a dataset to be loaded, the following must be specified:

  • Study Root Path: The filepath to the folder for this analyzed study. This is the folder that, itself, contains the derivatives, rawdata, and sourcedata folders.
  • Metadata Filepath: (Optional) The filepath to the .csv or .tsv file containing additional data to merge with the output of ExploreASL. See the Metadata/Ancillary Information Incorporation section for more information.
  • Which Atlas Statistic to Load: Self-explanatory - are we interested in the mean, median, or spatial coefficient of variation (CoV) of the data?
  • Which Partial Volume Correction Spreadsheet to Load: Self-explanatory - are we interested in the partial volume corrected (PVC) or non-partial volume corrected (non-PVC) data?
  • Atlases to Load: Which regions of interest based on atlas do we want to have CBF values loaded from. ❗ Note ❗ that you can only load the atlases that were analyzed and indicated earlier when we were defining ExploreASL's processing settings.
