However, to date, there are no examples of investigators using whole genome sequence data to explore the genetic underpinnings of image-derived traits. Whole genome sequencing
has been acquired for several cohorts that have been studied extensively with neuroimaging methods (e.g. the “Genetics of Brain Structure and Function” study with over 1500 imaged individuals and
over 1000 with whole genome sequence (Olvera et al., 2011) and the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, http://adni.loni.ucla.edu).
