Hi, I'm new to fMR and am using mri_convert to convert from siemens dicom to analyze/spm format.I ran the command below and had a couple of questions:
1 - Why does the first INFO: line say that 807 files were found when only 805 were input? 2 - Why were only 800 of 805 files converted? 3 - As it says at the end of the output, the axial plane is flipped. Is there any way I can prevent this? Thanks for your help, Alex mri_convert -it siemens_dicom 21851740 -ot spm ../test mri_convert -it siemens_dicom 21851740 -ot spm ../test reading from 21851740...
