Title of dataset:
Raw image data from 1276 microCT for ExperimentA, Anon Lab Group

Principal Investigator: Prof Anonymous, Research Institute, prof.anonymous@institute.edu
Data Creator:		John Smith, Research Institute, j.smith@institute.edu

Project objectives:
To quantify changes in lower limb bone mass, between 14 and 24 weeks old, in two common mouse strains 
with or without ovariectomy.

--------------------------------------------DATA FILES-------------------------------------------------
File naming convention: 
strain-treatment-specimenNum_age_version_imageNumber.fileFormat

Attributes:
       strain = indicates whether the mouse was C57BL/6 or BALB/c
    treatment = indicates whether the mouse was ovariectomized or non-surgical control
  specimenNum = a 2-digit number assigned to each mouse in the treatment groups (between 01-06)
          age = age of the mouse, in weeks, at the time of the microCT scan
      version = indicating whether image is raw data, reconstructed or processed data file
  imageNumber = 4-digit image slice number in the microCT z-stack (e.g. 00xx)
   fileFormat = 8-bit bitmap (.bmp) image files as generated by the microscope 

Acronyms and Codes:
          strain = {C57BL/6: "BL6", BALB/c: "BaC"}
       treatment = {ovariectomized: "OVX", non-operated control: "CTL"}
     specimenNum = {"01", ”02”, ”03”, “04”, “05” ,”06”}
     age (weeks) = {“w14”, “w16”, “w18”, “w20”, “w22”, “w24”}
         version = {raw: "raw", reconstructed: "rec", processed: "proc"}

Examples:
The raw image file of the 3rd C57BL/6 mouse from the ovariectomized group, microCT scanned at 18-weeks-old
	- BL6-OVX-03_w16_raw_0001.bmp
The raw image file of the 1st BALB/c mouse from the non-surgical control group, microCT scanned at 22-weeks-old
	- BaC-CTL-03_w22_raw_0001.bmp

----------------- --------------------------DATA LOCATION-----------------------------------------------
The raw image data is located in the following folder in the laboratory's central storage allocation:
.../AnonLabGroup/ExperimentA/RawData/

Raw data folders are organised by strain then by treatment as shown below:
