Dataset of whole-brain resting-state fMRI of 227 young and elderly adults acquired at 3T.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the impact of adult age on the brain functional connectivity, whole-brain resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (R-fMRI) data were acquired on a 3T clinical MRI scanner in a cohort of 227, right-handed, native Swedish-speaking, healthy adult volunteers (N=227, aged 18-74 years old, male/female=99/128). The dataset is mainly consisted of a younger (18-30 years old n=124, males/females=51/73) and elderly adult (n=76, 60-76 years old, males/females=35/41) subgroups. The dataset was analyzed using a new data-driven analysis (QDA) framework. With QDA two types of threshold-free voxel-wise resting-state functional connectivity (RFC) metrics were derived: the connectivity strength index (CSI) and connectivity density index (CDI), which can be utilized to assess the br
