Rationale

Raw data

  • Should store everything that cannot be automatically replicated.

  • This folder should be backed up extremely securely

  • nifti data are usually generated manually one-at-a-time, for exampling using DICOM convert.

  • All data additional to images are stored with nifti. Examples include slice timing, DTI directions and b-values, T2 echo times, ASL details (to be implemented as of 2020-12-01)

Project

  • Should only store data that can be automatically replicated

  • May be extremely large

  • Less critical backup as can be replicated

  • Should not include data that was manually generated (coregistration, slicetiming, etc.)
