Harmonizing MRI data that acquired from multi-scanners may help reduce non-biological bias. ComBat (named for \combining batches") is an empirical Bayesian method for data harmonization that was originallydesigned for genomics (Johnson et al., 2007). It has recently been adapted to neuroimaging studies and applied to diverse data types including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) (Fortin et al., 2017), cortical thicknesses (Fortinet al., 2018), functional connectivity measurements (Yu et al., 2018), and radiomic features derived from positron emission tomography (PET) imaging (Orlhac et al., 2018).
