A dataset containing baseline and time-varying information relating to Alzheimer's disease (AD) based on the Open Access Series of Imaging Studies (OASIS). This set consists of a longitudinal collection of 51 subjects aged 62 to 92. Each subject was scanned on two or more visits, separated by at least one year for a total of 115 imaging sessions. For each subject, 3 or 4 individual T1-weighted MRI scans obtained in single scan sessions are included.

Details

The data was originally hosted in this Kaggle repository: https://www.kaggle.com/jboysen/mri-and-alzheimers?select=oasis_longitudinal.csv. It has been harmonized for an example analysis for risk set matching based on a reduced sample including patients who go from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to AD and those patients with MCI throughout.
