This release resolves a number of issues with fieldmaps inducing distortions

during correction. Phase difference and direct fieldmaps are now masked correctly,

preventing the overestimation of distortions outside the brain. Additionally,
35+
we now implement Jacobian weighting during unwarping, which corrects for compression

and expansion effects on signal intensity.
