I was able to convert your file without problem. When you run mri_convert, you have to give a path to a file that exists. Below, the error says that it cannot find /autofs/space/huygens_001/users/mia/subjects/ct.anat.nii
Does this file exist? It is different than the one you have below, ie /autofs/space/huygens_001/users/mia/subjects/MG17_SurferOutput/mri/ct.anat.nii On 01/20/2015 11:26 AM, Borzello, Mia wrote: > Hi guys, > full command line: mri_convert ct.anat.nii ct.anat.mgz > > command line: ls -l > /autofs/space/huygens_001/users/mia/subjects/MG17_SurferOutput/mri/ct.anat.nii > -rw-rw-r-- 1 miaborz acqcash 32506208 Jan 19 22:12 > /autofs/space/huygens_001/users/mia/subjects/MG17_SurferOutput/mri/ct.anat.nii > > I had to send the ct.anat.nii file separately because it was too large of a > file for this email. > > Thanks, > m > ________________________________________ > From: freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu > [freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] on behalf of Bruce Fischl > [fis...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] > Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2015 7:43 AM > To: Freesurfer support list > Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] converting .nii to .mgz > > Hi Mia > > can you please send us the full command line?
