# MRI Data Organization \[No Longer Used]

## <mark style="color:$danger;">**NOTE: This is our old study organization method. This page is preserved for future reference but should no longer be used as a guide for data organization.**</mark>

Our MRI data is stored in a standard way across studies (for the most part). Doing this allows us to navigate through or share any study files or data easily.

Each study is structured like so:

<figure><img src="/files/SP89OoaR3UdBuCzG3pgM" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Study Materials are any document that supports the study's function - SOPs, recruitment materials, etc. Billing documents are what they sound like, documents involving billing of any services used in the study. Patient Data is HIPAA protected data related to each study participant. Imaging includes all raw imaging data. Analysis include any kind of analysis done on any data, including imaging data. Depending on the study, there may also be other higher order folders.

Image analysis pipeline files also have a specific structure. It looks like this:

<figure><img src="/files/GHqWUTPSi0fi8RAzCmU6" alt="" width="327"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

01\_Protocols includes any pipeline documentation, scripts, related papers, etc. 02\_Data contains all input data (this could be raw or preprocessed data). 03\_Analysis includes all of the intermediate output files of a pipeline. 04\_Summary includes all final outputs, CSV files, plots, etc.
