Table 1.

Data used for validation of TASH and for the musicianship application (see section 2.4.2.2): demographics (age and sex) of participants scanned on different MRI scanners. For the musicianship application, the data obtained on the Symphony 1.5 T and on the Trio 3.0 T scanners consisted of data in which HG volumes between musicians and non-musicians have previously been shown. The data obtained on the TrioTim 3 T scanner consisted of new data in which we aimed to extend previous findings of HG volume group differences.
