Hello Shantanu,

Thanks for your reply.I tried using that as well. And it says that the file
is only 'read' file. I used chmod on unix but still its not working with
dcm2nii. Interstingly, when I used mriconvert software for this,it
converted all the dcm files to .img/.hdr files. This process resulted in
eight folders (in .img/.hdr format) in the order of
T1>T2>T1>T2>DTI>T1(resting stage)>T2 (in the order of the acquisition
acquired at the time of experiment).
Is there any special command you are using to convert those files Shantanu?
If yes, will you please let me know? Where do you keep your dcm files (iyou
don't mind me asking that)? I tried changing the location from Desktop to
Applications/freesurfer as well, but its still not working.

Thanks and regards,

Sampada
