Background suppression timing for ASL

Open michaelf500 opened this issue 8 months ago • 0 comments

In the ASL section, under pcasl, https://bids-specification.readthedocs.io/en/stable/appendices/arterial-spin-labeling.html the specification reads "Additionally, the BackgroundSuppressionPulseTime's is required in case BackgroundSuppression was applied."

However, I think the BackgroundSuppressionPulseTime is only a recommended parameter, not a required one (at least that is what the bids validator v 1.14.6 says, and it is not possible on our Philips system to find out from dicom what the backgroundsuppressionpulsetime is).

This should be changed to say 'recommended' not 'required'

Thanks

Michael
