Hi freesurfer experts,

I have recently begun to use freesurfer to do structural MRI analyses.  I have 
been able to successfully process about 40 structural scans with recon-all thus 
far, but starting a few days ago, I started getting this error whenever I run 
recon-all:

WARNING: file /Users/alojos/Applications/freesurfer/subjects/sub_9999.dcm does 
not contain a Siemens ASCII header
has this file been anonymized?
ERROR: cannot unpack mosiacs without ASCII header
Darwin nerc130622.local 14.5.0 Darwin Kernel Version 14.5.0: Mon Jan 11

recon-all -s sub_9999 exited with ERRORS at Mon May 16 08:43:24 CDT 2016

Here are a few of the troubleshooting steps I’ve tried to track down the cause 
of the error:

-     - Re-run recon-all with a couple of scans from my dataset that I have 
already successfully processed

-     - Re-run recon-all the same datasets but on a different computer

-     - Re-convert the scans from .ima files to dicoms in osirix, then run 
recon-all

For all of these steps, I have gotten the exact same error message.  The files 
should be anonymized, since I used osirix’s “anonymize and convert” function to 
generate the dicom files (the scans were given to me as .ima files).

Any suggestions on what to try next?

Thank you!
