TABLE 1:

Brain MRI Protocol Used at All Participating Sites

Sequence Isotropic Resolution (mm) TR/TE Acquisition Time Other Parameters

Precontrast T2-weighted FLAIR 1.0 4800/352 7 min 9 s TI = 1800 ms
Pre- and postcontrast T2*-weighted segmented EPI 0.65 64/35 5 min 48 s Flip angle = 10°, EPI factor = 15
Pre- and postcontrast T1-weighted imaging 1.0 7.8/3.0 3 min 16 s Flip angle = 18°

Note—All sequences comprised a 3D sagittal acquisition of entire brain. TI = inversion time, EPI = echo-planar imaging.
