Hello, when downloading the MRI scans I have noticed some scans with different naming conventions; P2, No angle, no angle =, ADNI SH. Please could you clarify what these different naming conventions mean

Thank you for your question to the ADNI MRI Core.
The ADNI MRI Core has made a conceited effort to make the series descriptions more uniform for ADNI, but sites have the ability to add site specific phrases or descriptions to assist with their scanning. I am not sure what all the different conventions pertain to specifically, but we very soon ADNI will be setting a normalized type to all the series that have been acquired which will assist users in navigating through the noise this causes in the MRI data. This will allow users to select, T1, FLAIR, T2 Star, etc to download selected series without relying on the series descriptions.
