A consortium of the International Neuroimaging Datasharing Initiative (INDI), the ADHD-200 Sample is a collaboration of 8 international imaging sites that have aggregated and are openly sharing neuroimaging data from 362 children and adolescents diagnosed with ADHD and 585 typically developing controls. These 947 datasets are composed of structural and resting state functional MRI data along with phenotypic information.
In 2011, the ADHD-200 Consortium hosted a competition to identify biomarkers of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) using the ADHD-200 data. The Preprocessed Connectomes Project (PCP) began as an initiative to make the competition accessible to a broader range of researchers by preprocessing the data and openly sharing the results. The data from this initiative was used by many of the participants in the competition, including the winning team, and has resulted in several publications, MS theses, PhD disertations, and even patents (see reference list).
The ADHD-200 data was preprocessed by three different teams using their preferred tools. The Athena pipeline is based on tools from the AFNI and FSL software packages, the NIAK pipeline uses the Neuroimaging Analysis Kit on CBRAIN, and the Burner pipeline performed voxel-based-morphometry processing using SPM8. The preprocessed results can be downloaded from NITRC and from an Amazon Web Services Public S3 Bucket (see download instructions).
In accordance with HIPAA guidelines and 1000 Functional Connectomes Project / INDI protocols, all datasets are anonymous, with no protected health information included.
