External Email - Use Caution        

Thank you for your answer. 

Even though I don't need the DTI values, I can't avoid this message : 





"ERROR: the number of frames * number of slices does not equal the number of 
dicom files." 




I'm not very familiar with Ubuntu too so I might have made a mistake : 




I try to set the environnement variable ‘ export FS_LOAD_DWI = 0 ’ in bash (I 
use the command $cd then $nano .bashrc and write after 

export FS_LICENSE=/home/jeanmri/license.txt 

export FREESURFER_HOME=/home/jeanmri/freesurfer/7.2.0 

the line export FS_LOAD_DWI = 0 ) 

Then I open with nano the FreeSurferEnv.csh and add setenv FS_LOAD_DWI 0 at the 
end but when I use mri_convert on my bruker dicom files, the same error 
reappeared. 

Did I miss something ? 

Best Regards, 

Mateo

Hi Mateo, 



It looks like mri_convert terminated prematurely when you tried to convert 
those 512 dicom files. 



Those error messages are printed when mri_convert wasn’t able to retrieve DTI 
information from dicom. If you don’t need the DTI values, you can ignore those 
error messages. 



Also, looking at the codes, I think if you set environment variable FS_LOAD_DWI 
to 0 before running mri_convert, it should finish convert all 512 dicom files. 
To set the environment variable, you do ‘export FS_LOAD_DWI = 0’ in bash, and 
‘setenv FS_LOAD_DWI 0’ in csh. 



Can you give it a try? 



Thanks. 



Yujing

External Email - Use Caution 


Hello FreeSurfer Developers 





I hope i don't spam, if anyone has a clue... 








I need to convert 512 dicom files from Bruker into .nii . I firstly add .dcm to 
my Bruker multi gradient echo phase files then enter the following command : 


mri_convert MRIm001.dcm phaseMGE.nii 





Here is the first message : 





reading from MRIm001.dcm...

dcmfile =

ERROR: GetDICOMInfo(): dcmGetDWIParams() 1 





Then 508 error messages like the three last lines appear. 


It ends with : 





First Sorting

Vs: 0 0 1

nslices = 63 


ndcmfiles = 508 


ERROR: the number of frames * number of slices does 


not equal the number of dicom files. 





I did a test with only 448 files (I just copy-paste the first 448 files = 7 TE 
* 64 slices) and I obtained the same error messages but the nifti files are 
created and seem usable (quick test with Fiji). Here are the last lines :

k_ras = (-0, -0, 1) 


writing to phaseMGR.nii...

I'm pretty new with mri convert and I don't understand why it stops converting 
to nii with 512 files (8 TE) but not 448 files for Brucker files.

Mateo
