Hi,
the cognitive/diagnostic status isn't produced by a command-line script — it lives in the clinical data tables you download from the OASIS-3 data browser as spreadsheets (CSV). The download scripts only fetch the imaging/FreeSurfer/PUP files; they don't generate labels.
There are two places to look, both in the ADRC Clinical Data table:
-
CDR (Clinical Dementia Rating) global score — the
quickest "normal vs. impaired" flag:
- CDR = 0 → cognitively normal
- CDR = 0.5 → very mild impairment (commonly treated as MCI / at-risk)
- CDR ≥ 1 → dementia (1 mild, 2 moderate, 3 severe)
-
dx1–dx5 (coded clinician diagnosis) — more
specific than CDR because it gives the etiology.
dx1is the primary diagnosis, with values like "Cognitively normal", "AD dementia", "vascular dementia", plus contributing factors (mood disorder, vitamin deficiency, etc.). So "at risk of AD" specifically means a CDR > 0 withdx1pointing toward AD dementia / uncertain dementia, rather than just any impairment.
How to get it:
- Open
the OASIS-3 project in the data browser
(central.xnat.org).
- Load
the Subjects and ADRC Clinical
Data tables.
-
Export as a Spreadsheet (CSV). You'll get columns like
cdr,dx1–dx5,mmse,ageAtEntry, plus a session label.
One important detail: OASIS-3 is longitudinal, so each clinical row
is tagged with the subject ID + "days from entry" (the
dXXXX suffix), and a subject's status can change over time.
To label a given scan, match by subject ID and pick the clinical
assessment closest in days-from-entry to that MR/PET session.
All of this is documented in the OASIS-3 Imaging Data Dictionary (the "ADRC Clinical Data / dx1–dx5" and CDR sections) on oasis-brains.org.
Hope this helps.
