acquisition parameters available in DICOM files, we RECOMMEND that users provide
additional meta information extracted from DICOM files in a sidecar JSON file
(with the same filename as the `.nii[.gz]` file, but with a `.json` extension).
Currently defined metadata fields are listed in the [Glossary](./glossary.md).
Where possible, DICOM Tags are adopted directly as BIDS metadata terms and
indicated with "**Corresponds to** DICOM Tag ID1, ID2 `DICOM Tag Name`.".

BIDS term description with "**Based on** DICOM Tag ID1, ID2 `DICOM Tag Name`.".
Extraction of BIDS compatible metadata can be performed using [dcm2niix](https://github.com/rordenlab/dcm2niix)
