Question Posted 04/25/25:
I am conducting research on multimodal data fusion for deep learning-based AD diagnosis, and I have a model trained on an image sample which contains scans from visits "ADNI Screening" and "ADNI2 Screening MRI-New Pt". I have the MMSE results for ADNI Screening subjects, but I couldn't MMSE results for the "ADNI2 Screening MRI-New Pt". Given that I need the associated scores for those patients, would you advise me to use the scores obtained in other visits? If so, which ones?

Thank you for your question to the ADNI MRI Core. After checking with the ADNI Bio-stats team their recommendation is to use the MMSE from the screening visit for all participants. The VISCODE “scmri” is really only used for the MRI
Everything else from the screening visit would have “sc”.
Good luck!

Thank you very much for your response in such short notice. However, I have downloaded both "ADNIMERGE - Key ADNI tables merged into one table [ADNI1,GO,2,3]" and the "Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) [ADNI1,GO,2,3,4] " and I haven't found occurrences with VISCODE matching "scmri". Could you please clarify what file I should be searching for?
