Hi Zeyu,

It looks like your files are in 'interfile' format.

If you have access to pmod, you might be able to use that to convert your files 
to nifti.

        External Email - Use Caution

Hi Freesurfer developers,

I am new to PET and FreeSurfer. I am trying to go through the PetSurfer 
tutorial (MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from 
"secure-web.cisco.com" claiming to be 
https://secure-web.cisco.com/1WIdRjlXspzVNAAubGnxONoOi-JQqlKFaZgFpmpGW_4cj_NGoWMbZCmxAW1Lx2XUGPrto07cKnoNmWSMabwUBhdizuJ3mimj9Xd_MWpUSafdFT4ojOiEHnwrT0iBPizzRaKXMlYsvKENtDO5ccRa8UEo9gWeMyQ0bNS2k2tUOQgdDchNUPKBRvJq54IaFi4y0eKS3ZSLgf78xNoL7Ng6qOqEMXMWX71tcHgARz3rerCE6795uAmZuqzjgij7h-thEDV9w3pPcJD-2qnuXbJpekQ/https%3A%2F%2Fsurfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu%2Ffswiki%2FPetSurfer<https://secure-web.cisco.com/1SgXjbJz8ibehnENjVYIj14hM83pSJC3l0yNLV0Ubo9CVpoRewK5OxES53m1g56UEZ-L0ETzo4Rc8IsDydiXIeeWmtig-JVTf38MrXJgEig7jBCmIH1m-rCOdppmfFR5wfgg1_moJvMlaGmh_k1ETKxXWg2Wacf0cZvhVYuR5DFR1BJXYCAXEtP7FsfLzyU1CzhIPaI_b5kMDFt1eR8x60qTqr2FUBBzv_u8-A5VIvRrR-59G_W4Aac7OxqLCUzVxEYoa18Z0bBEgjXS-hCBj12Hv8QQmoyM5U0sU9HZrh0U40Wqke505AyMtqaJUm9EXuWiDjKfFEkEzXAenqlKtQA/https%3A%2F%2Fsurfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu%2Ffswiki%2FPetSurfer>).
 In Part 4 "Reg
 ister your PET image with the anatomical", the PET data format in example is 
.nii.gz. However, here are the PET data I have (collected from SIEMENS HRRT 
PET):

309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame0_3D.i
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame0_3D.i.hdr
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame1_3D.i
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame1_3D.i.hdr
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame2_3D.i
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame2_3D.i.hdr
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame3_3D.i
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame3_3D.i.hdr
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame4_3D.i
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame4_3D.i.hdr
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame5_3D.i
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame5_3D.i.hdr

I tried converting the .i file to (for example) an .nii file by mri_convert but 
got the following error message:

mri_convert 309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame0_3D.i 309Fally0.nii
ERROR: cannot determine file type for 
309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame0_3D.i

Then I changed the .i file's extension to .img and the .i.hdr file's extension 
to .hdr and run mri_convert, but still got an error message:

mri_convert 309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame0_3D.img 309Fally0.nii
reading from 309Fally-309Fally-2021.8.23.11.51.13_EM_frame0_3D.img...
error: ReadAnalyzeHeader: unsupported data type 17741

I couldn't find anywhere about how to process PET data in .i and .i.hdr files. 
Any suggestions? I attached one .i.hdr file for your reference.
