Hello. We are trying to use TRACULA to analyze the structural connectivity of PD patients scanned on a 3 tesla Philips Ingenia. We have run the tutorial data without any problems but encounter errors when using our own data. We ran recon-all on all of our subjects without any problem and follow the exact steps that worked for the tutorial data but encounter different errors when using the dcm or nii version of the DTI scans. Our nii files go from scanner to CD to Osirix to DICOM to dcm2nii which gives us the nii files and the bvals and bvecs. Here is the error for the nii DTI scans (included bvals and gradients in the config file for the nii files).
