How to name localizer scans in BIDS?

2

I think most folks don’t keep the localizers in the BIDS dataset. The Heudiconv ReproIn heuristic specifically ignores anat-scout scans, for example.

If you really want to keep them, I think you could do something like anat/<entities>_acq-scout_T1w.nii.gz? You’d have to tell any preprocessing tools (e.g., fMRIPrep) to ignore acq-scout scans though.
