Scan sessions are conducted at each ABCD site using either a GE MR750, Siemens PRISMA or Philips scanner, all equipped with a 32-channel head coil. See Table 2 for scan parameters. A 3D T1-weighted magnetization-prepared rapid acquisition gradient-echo scan using prospective motion correction (PROMO) is used to obtain a high-resolution anatomical image for cortical and subcortical segmentation. PROMO technology allows for ability to correct for motion in real-time (45 (link)) and has been demonstrated as particularly beneficial for scanning children who have more difficulty staying still (46 (link), 47 (link)). For further review of imaging acquisition and processing methods used in the ABCD study see Hagler et al. (48 (link)).
