The ‘eddy’ correction may be better if it has both polarities to work with.  Splitting the polarities and processing them separately would be a “test/retest” that doesn’t necessarily reflect the HCP protocol.  The approx. 45 subjects that were repeated through the entire HCP protocol will allow one to assess the reliability of the full (intended) acquisition, albeit at a mean interval between visits of about 130 days.

Subject: Re: [HCP-Users] Test-retest reliability / Intra vs inter subject variability of HCP data

Thank you all! Michael, why would you expect the two diffusion scans using the different phase encoding directions to be different? Or do you mean more as in that there is not enough time between 'test' and 'retest'?

There are about 45 subjects that went through the entire HCP protocol a
2nd time that will be a good way to assess the reliability of the
diffusion data when released later this spring.

Note that using one PE polarity as “test” and the other PE polarity as
“retest” would not really be testing the test/retest reliability of the
full diffusion protocol.

Data from several dozen test-retest subjects (I don’t recall the exact
number) is currently being processed and will be part of the S1200
release, currently targeted for mid-spring.
