Determining the polarity using ImageOrientationPatient

Our JSON files from dcm2niix only populates the PhaseEncodingAxis and I was wondering if there was a way to confirm the polarity ( j or j-) for the PhaseEncodingDirection. Could information from the ImageOrientationPatientDICOM be used to determine this? If so, our ImageOrientationPatientDICOM is 0.99/0.11/0.06/-0.11/0.98/0.11.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Hi @Da-Yea

Thank you for your question. I think this thread should help determine the PhaseEncodingDirection from your Dicom series
