Once you are logged into the website, on the top bar select Download -> Image Collections.
- Once on the Image Collections page, select Advanced Search. This will bring you to the location where you can select parameters for the data you wish to download.
On the Advanced Search tab, there a few parameters that were previously used to download the data. First, for the Study Date, click the dropdown and change it to "Between", then enter the date of the previous data download in the start date, and the current date in the end date. Make sure to record the current date so we know for future downloads. Next, for the Image Description, you will need to search twice using different criteria for this field. Search once using “N3m” and again using “scaled”. Finally, under Image Protocol -> Weighting, check the box next to "T1".
- Once the search results load, select the scans you wish to download and add them to a new image collection.
- After you have all the scans in the image collection, download the csv file associated with the image collection. This file is important because it contains information regarding the image ID, subject ID, group, age, and more.
- Finally, select the images from the collection you wish to download and click the "1-Click Download" option. NOTE: this can take several hours or several days to download depending on the number of files.
