Use BIDS to structure data
As part of the review process for JOSS, a reviewer recommended using the qMRI component for BIDS to:
- Standardise how image data is stored and structured (including meta-data such as the acquisition parameters required for DCE analysis)
- Encode physical units on output maps
This seems like a very sensible thing to do, but would mean replacing the in-house XTR files used for storing meta-data. We will look to incorporate BIDS in the next major version of Madym, while also keeping back-compatibility with XTR files, so that we can read older QBI datasets.
