Hello Freesurfer,

Thanks Shantanu I was able to convert the .nii to .mgz files . However,
about the recon-all command do I run it separately for each .mgz file or
run it one time for all .mgz file(which are eight in numbers)? And what
command do I use for recon-all? I have tried many but none is working..

Thanks and regards,

Sampada
