Probably not a good idea, depending on how the data are balanced across acquisition protocols. If you find differences between time points of subjects or between subjects, you want to be ensure that those differences are not because of acquisition differences.
If, for example time point is always collected with one protocol and time point 2 is always collected with another, you won’t be able to tell.
Dear TRACULA experts,
I'm running a longitudinal trac-all analysis and I'm wondering whether or not I could include different DWI acquisition protocols both between subjects and within subjects in the same analysis.
Thank you,
M. Cano
