Description
Currently EPI fieldmaps are stored in the fmap
directory. The user specifies which scans in func
or dwi
the fieldmaps are supposed to correct via the IntendedFor
field in the corresponding json sidecars.
Sometimes a whole DWI series is acquired with the reverse phase encoding direction of another DWI series and the low b images in each series are meant to correct the opposite PE direction series.
For this use case, would it be best to
- Manually extract some low b images from each series into a new nifti file in fmaps with
IntendedFor
specified in its sidecar or - Add an
IntendedFor
field to the sidecars of the images indwi
andfunc
?
Option 1 would go against keeping the images as raw as possible and would make automatic BIDS conversion very tricky. Option 2 might be confusing because images in dwi
and func
are not really "intended for" distortion correction.
I'd be very interested to hear opinions on this and happy to do a PR
