##' Diffusion Tensor Imaging: more fractional anisotropy profiles and outcomes
##'
##' A diffusion tensor imaging dataset used in Swihart et al. (2012). Mean
##' diffusivity profiles for the corpus callosum (cca) and parallel diffusivity
##' for the right corticospinal tract (rcst). Accompanying the profiles are the
##' subject ID numbers, visit number, and Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test
##' (pasat) score. We thank Dr. Daniel Reich for making this dataset available.

##' If you use this data as an example in written work, please include the
##' following acknowledgment: ``The MRI/DTI data were collected at Johns
##' Hopkins University and the Kennedy-Krieger Institute"
##'
##' Note: DTI2 uses mean diffusivity of the the corpus callosum rather than
##' fractional anisotropy (FA), and parallel diffusivity of the rcst rather
##' than FA. Please see the documentation for DTI for more about the DTI
##' dataset.
