T1-weighted data were obtained on multiple 3T scanners in the ABCD Study (Siemens Prisma, General Electric (GE) 750 and Philips) and one scanner in the Generation R Study (GE 750). Standard adult-sized coils were used for the ABCD Study and an eight-channel receive-only head coil for the Generation R Study. To acquire T1-weighted structural images, the ABCD Study used an inversion prepared RF-spoiled gradient echo scan with prospective motion correction while the Generation R Study used an inversion recovery fast spoiled gradient recalled sequence (GE option = BRAVO, TR = 8.77 ms, TE = 3.4 ms, TI = 600 ms, flip angle = 10°, matrix size = 220 × 220, field of view = 220 × 220 mm, slice thickness = 1 mm, number of slices = 230, ARC acceleration factor = 2). More details can be found elsewhere (Casey et al., 2018 (link); Hagler et al., 2019 (link); White et al., 2018 (link)). Of note, in the ABCD Study, a technical mistake occurred at one collection site, causing the hemisphere data to be flipped. This was fixed before processing.
