Additional details (e.g., matrix dimensions, inversion time, phase oversampling, refocusing flip angle, echo spacing, partial Fourier ratio, number of diffusion-encoding directions, and b-values, number of volumes, etc.) are provided in the text describing each sequence if/when appropriate. Some of the parameters for the T1w, T2-FLAIR, and PD/T2w sequences have been previously reported (Marrie et al., 2021a).
